Started building wireshark without the GUI.  One hiccup is the configure script found LIBPCAP so it defined 
HAVE_LIBPCAP.  But one file was asking for PCAP_ERROR which is not defined in AIX (this is AIX 6.1).


Fixed in

        https://code.wireshark.org/review/19351

It was using PCAP_ERROR in one case where it wasn't guaranteed to be defined - it wasn't defined until libpcap 1.0, but 
pcap_list_datalinks() is present before 1.0.

About the only thing I need to modify is to add one -Wl,-bbigtoc to one of the strings in the Makefile.  I don’t know 
how to do this properly so that it applies only to AIX.

Do you want me to open a bug report?


Yes.
