As of 1.2.0, the problems originally reported with "make rpm-package" no longer
appear relevant and the rpm can actually be built without any of the previous
patches; however, when building the rpm on RHEL5, I now get the following:

        make ../wireshark-filter.4 )
make[4]: Entering directory
`/home/cmaynard/wireshark-1.2.0/packaging/rpm/BUILD/
wireshark-1.2.0/doc'
WIRESHARK_RUN_FROM_BUILD_DIRECTORY=1 ../tshark -G fields | /usr/bin/perl
./dfilt
er2pod.pl ./wireshark-filter.pod.template > wireshark-filter.pod

(process:8342): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_string_insert_c: assertion `pos <=
string->l
en' failed

(... 6050 of these in total ...)

The "make rpm-package" does complete though and after the rpm is built,
installed and run, Wireshark does start but displays those same 6050
Glib-CRITICAL's again as well as a rather uninformative dialog warning message:

 (!)
   [] Don't show this message again.
             [ OK ]

After this, packets can be captured but display filters and color filters don't
work and likely more stuff fails as well.  Attempting to open a previously
captured file causes Wireshark to freeze.

RHEL5 details obtained from "wireshark -v":
wireshark 1.2.0
