Hi, First of all you need to be aware of the fact the the 1.3.x series aren't real releases. They are development snapshots, with no other status than that. Hopefully they work, but they might break badly. "Not recommended in production" as the saying goes.
There's not even a svn tag for it, so it's hard to say what's in there. I found the tarball and packet-6lowpan.c was not found in there, so it's safe to say is was not included. Now that put's you in an interesting position: 1. you've the 6lowpan plugin for 1.2.? 2. 6lowpan was added to 1.3.1. 3. plugins are not portable between versions. So what you can do is: 1. use the 6lowpan plugin for 1.2.? (? = the maintenance release you build it for). 2. skip 1.3.0, since you have no solution, or build your 6lowpan plugin for that version too. 3. use the build-in dissector in 1.3.? (? >= 1), although 1.3.x is "Not recommended in production".
