As someone who has never used the RTP player, I've often thought it's a bit
of a stretch  for a "Packet Analyser" to include the functionality and
can't believe that there aren't other applications out thee that can do the
job  better than Wireshark.  However I do agree that it would be best to at
least maintain what was there in the GTK build, but that does require
someone with the requisite skills to step up and maintain it.
