Wireshark · Wireshark-users: [Wireshark-users] Upgraded wireshark to 1.2.6 but now old pcap files cannot be read

[Kok-Yong Tan <ktan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I've just upgraded wireshark via MacPorts to version 1.2.6 on a PPC  
MacOS 10.4.11 system with Xcode 2.5 installed.  Previous pcap files  
which were readable in prior versions suddenly cannot be read. I'm  
getting this error:

The capture file appears to be damaged or corrupt (pcap: File has  
4294901760-byte packet, bigger than maximum of 65535)

Does something need to be tweaked in Wireshark since this pcap file  
has been untouched.  It also gives me a similar error (the number of  
4294901760 just changes) if I download a sample pcap file from  
<http://wiki.wireshark.org/SampleCaptures>.
