Recommend c-ares. Otherwise name resolution is done synchronously, which is excruciatingly slow when your capture file contains a sufficient number of unique addresses.

Remove the PCRE dependency. We switched GRegex (glib's PCRE wrapper) a while back.

You might want to go further and make c-ares mandatory. A case could be made that it's at least as important as decryption support.

Thanks! Can you add a (mandatory) openssl dependency as well? It looks like it's linking against the deprecated system version, which is why it's failing our post-build audit.

Also, if you could nuke this:

43: Trailing whitespace was found

I'm pretty sure --with-ssl (which triggers linking against libcrypto) can be removed. As I recall it's a leftover from the days when we used Net-SNMP. Most of our decryption support is handled by gcrypt and GNUTLS.
