forwarded 681478 https://bugs.wireshark.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=7381 retitle 681478 wireshark-common: mergecap generates unusable pcapng file if interface index 0 has no packets thanks
Hi Phil, The problem occurs only when mergecap creates pcapng files. The following works fine for me: $ mergecap -F libpcap -w bug-ws-7382.pcap en0-arp-en1-arp.pcapng en1-arp.pcapng $ tshark -r bug-ws-7382.pcap 1 0.000000 192.168.0.16 -> Broadcast ARP Who has 192.168.0.98? Tell 192.168.0.16 2 142.713927 192.168.0.16 -> Broadcast ARP Who has 192.168.0.98? Tell 192.168.0.16 Since mergecap never was able to perform the merge of pcapng files to one pcapng file I don't consider the reported problem to be a regression thus reverting wireshark package to 1.6.x is not needed. Upstream is working on the fix and with the support of Release Managers I may be able to upload a fixed version for Wheezy.
