Re: No plugins loaded as 'root' user

Some problem with the latest 1.3.2 branch, plugins work perfectly until
you run it as root. 
Anybody who can tell me what I'm forgetting? Or a how-to install my own
build so every user can use it?

trying to do a live capture as the root user (sudo) but I noticed that
no plugins are loaded. The plugins are loaded fine when I run wireshark
as the same user that made the build. 

Do I have to install the plugins or wireshark somewhere so every user
(including root) can run wireshark? Or do I have to copy the
plugin-libraries manually to a directory?
