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
