Package: ethereal
Version: 0.10.10-2sarge4
Severity: important

If I SSH into a machine, and type 'ethereal' (or 'sudo ethereal') it
immediately segfaults. I don't know if it's the X forwarding that's the
issue, the box is headless, so it's not really testable.

strace finishes with:

fstat64(3, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=2539, ...}) = 0

0) = 0x41532000
