>Description:
      ethereal by default has a runtime dependency on libnetsnmp.so.6, provided by net-snmp 5.1.x.  net-snmp 5.2 has superseded it in ports and provides libnetsnmp.so.7, so the dependency fails.
>How-To-Repeat:
      make the ethereal port with default tunables
>Fix:
      One workaround is to use the ethereal-lite port which does not link to the snmp library by default.  If ethereal 0.10.6 does not link correctly with 5.2, version 0.10.7 might.
