Hi Chris,

We saw the notice and so far considered that reverting was not necessary as
it is only in master branch, that hopefully the next release should be
available ASAP, and that anybody can do it manually (Wireshark will not
propose to install an older release that the one currently installed
anyway).
If there is a consensus to do the revert it can be done easily but still
the users would have to do the downgrade manually (unless we want to hack
the NSIS installer, which seems overkill to me given that only nightly
builds are impacted).

Best regards,
Pascal.
