If there is no fix for 12.3 it will mean that to upgrade to wireshark 1.11.x (or any future qt-based version) it will be necessary to build from source since the packaging will fail.
Wireshark is already offered as an openSUSE package. It is even part of the official distribution. openSUSE 12.3 offers version 1.8.12, but the network:utilities repository offers 1.10.5 (which was updated about 17 days ago). I am sure that the 1.11.x versions will appear there sooner or later. Of course these will not be pushed to 12.3 as maintenance updates, but would be available if you add the network:utilities repository, which is also build for openSUSE 12.3
I was hoping to be able to build 1.11.2 in OBS (since there are no oS packages available from wireshark.org) if I could ever figure out how to
Maybe it would be good to do a so called BURP (Branch, Update, Request, the Package). More info on http://lizards.opensuse.org/2011/05/16/have-you-burped-yet-today/ Starting from the network:utilities repository, would provide you with a working 1.10.5 package for openSUSE (including spec-file, etc) and after you branch it you could update it to the latest 1.11.2 version and then submit it back to network:utilities.
