Hi,
There would be another path to go with wireshark.
Would you like the idea of allowing 1.2.11-2 to go to testing if I fix
the regression introduced by 1.2.11?

I generated the patch series by importing upstream's Subversion
repository to Git.
I also attached the official 1.2.10-1.2.11 patch released by upstream.
Changes:
wireshark (1.2.11-1) unstable; urgency=high
.
* New upstream release 1.2.11
- release notes:
http://www.wireshark.org/docs/relnotes/wireshark-1.2.11.html
(Closes: #597703)
- security fixes
- The RTSP dissector could crash. (No assigned CVE number.)
* [Debconf translation updates]
- Basque (Iñaki Larrañaga Murgoitio).
Cheers,
Balint
