wireshark run problem with pixbufloader

[steve-accuris]

Hi

I have installed wireshark 1.0.1 on ia64 11.23. I have installed all of the required dependencies but I get the following error

#/usr/local/bin/wireshark

(wireshark:20191): GdkPixbuf-WARNING **: Error loading XPM image loader: Unable to load image-loading module: /usr/local/lib/hpux32/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/loaders/#libpixbufloader-xpm.so: Unable to find library '/usr/local/lib/hpux32/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/loaders/#libpixbufloader-xpm.so'.

(wireshark:20191): Gdk-CRITICAL **: file gdkpixbuf-render.c: line 294: assertion `GDK_IS_PIXBUF (pixbuf)' failed
Bus error(coredump)


Has anyone seen this, any pointers would be much appreciated ....

Thanks
Steve

Shalom,

Make sure your system is properly patched, send the bug report to wireshark and wait for the next version.

I created the lib file with # in front of it, as it was looking fro a library with a hash in front of the name and that did the trick , could be a bug in wireshark , who knows.

Thanks for the help

That's very strange. A "#" usually means that swinstall couldn't remove the load module because it was busy and it will be scheduled for removal later.

Interesting ! Good to know that
