Hi,

You could inspect the bug database, but as far as I know this is not a known issue.
Your setup seems rather normal, so that should not be cause for any problems. 
If you could investigate further into tun / named pipe capture behaviour that could be interesting.

Thanks,
Jaap

Hello,

I've stumbled upon the following problem with master branch of Wireshark: After a while (around 10 minutes) Wireshark 
(master) hangs when it's sniffing on a tun interface or a named pipe.
On the other side, when I use the last stable version of Wireshark (2.2.6) I can sniff on the same interface or named 
pipe without troubles for a long time.

Was there any change lately that would have caused that? I got the stable version of Wireshark installed through 
ubuntu repository/ppa. My user id also belongs to the wireshark group and I can sniff without root priviledges. Could 
the hanging be caused by that? Is that a classical problem?

Best regards

Rémy
