In packet-libvirt.c in wireshark dissector we include rpc/types.h but guard the include with a condition (that is supposed to be true if we detected during configure phase that the host system has the header file). Thing is, it looks like we were never doing the configure check and thus the file was never included and yet, the NSS plugin works. Drop the include then.

About
This is the project of Google Summer of Code 2013 accepted by QEMU.org and libvirt community. The goal of this project is, provide Wireshark dissector for Libvirt RPC protocol. It will provide Libvirt packet overview/detail analysing in Wireshark. Furthermore, it will be able to build(generated) from RPC protocol definition placed in Libvirt source tree to support latest protocol specification.

Installation
Run ./configure with --with-wireshark-dissector option enabled. Then dissector will compiled with libvirt itself.
Add/Remove protocol from dissector's support
Modify variable WS_DISSECTOR_PROTO_FILES in tools/wireshark/src/Makefile.am.
Changing installation directory
You can change installation directory of pluggable shared object(libvirt.so) by specifying --with-ws-plugindir=<path>.
You can install libvirt.so into your local wireshark plugin directory:
$ ./configure --with-wireshark-dissector \
--with-ws-plugindir=$HOME/.wireshark/plugins
