                    However i do have libgcrypt11 installed (and I
reinstalled it in my ubuntu 9.04 using synaptics). Where is wireshark trying
to find it? How can I link it properly so that I would be able to use it for
decrypting packets?


I'm not familiar with Ubuntu but I'm guessing that maybe a libgcrypt development package with a name something like libgcrypt-devel needs to be installed. (That's what it's called on Fedora).
