@Jaap

Normally I would agree, but if you are using 1.6.x and wireshark can
not find it's plug-ins, the message can be thrown by the openSAFETY
dissector. It is fixed in svn, and the fix for 1.6.x is waiting in
bugzilla.

regards,
Roland

Hi,

It's a test that find_heur_dissector_list(name) returns a valid list.
In this case it returns NULL: you try to add to a subdissector list which
doesn't exist.

You need to setup the subdissector list before adding to it.
Note that display filter fields do NOT automagically become a subdissector
list.
These are separate namespaces.

Thanks,
Jaap
