'emerge wireshark' is failing with reports of incompatibility with perl emerged with the minimal USE flag. But this is not the case as perl was not emerged with this flag on my system. This is not the same reported behaviour as bugs 146839, 145974 and 145067. ******* The error message: !!! ERROR: net-analyzer/wireshark-0.99.3 failed.
