Hi,

Putting Reply-ASAP in the Subject row is not realy useful :-(

 

I suspect this is related to http://wiki.wireshark.org/Development/Roadmap 

Rev 38045, Rev 38046 - Bug 6540 - Don't use g_mutex without having threads.

If try applying thos two patches.

Using a more modern GTK than GTK+ 2.10.4, with GLib 2.12.3 may also help.

Best regards

Anders
