Are you running from the build tree? plugins won't be picked up from the build tree if you're running as root (on the presumption that you didn't compile it as root and root shouldn't trust your build tree to be "safe"). If you install Wireshark (such that the plugins get installed in /usr/local or wherever), the plugins should be picked up even when run as root. ___________________________________________________________________________ Sent via: Wireshark-dev mailing list <[email protected]> Archives: http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev Unsubscribe: https://wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-dev mailto:[email protected]?subject=unsubscribe
