Since update to wireshark 1.10.4 wireshark could not open some of my capture
files anymore. Downgrade to 1.10.3 solves the issue. Upgrade to 1.10.5 does
not.
Starting with version 1.10.4 I get the error: The capture file appears to be
damaged or corrupt. (pcap: has 2411706113-byte packet, bigger than maximum of
65535).
When opening the file with 1.10.3 there is nothing unusual in the file.
According to the "save as" dialog the files generating this error are of type
"nokia tcpdump - libpcap".
I can not attach one of the files to this bug, because of privat data in the
file, but I can send the file to a single person upon request.
