One specific future scenario would be an iOS or Android version of
Wireshark purely for analyzing traffic captures and not capturing in
itself. Usually on such systems providing a binary which can capture system
traffic is frowned upon if not outright forbidden by the developer
licenses. Therefore

I remember getting (infrequent) questions/requests for building Wireshark
without the ability to capture. Usually the desire seems to come from
corporate IT policies which don't want people capturing corporate traffic
but which need to support users' ability to analyze captures made elsewhere

Agree. What was the original idea behind having pcap optional? I'm with
Guy: is that important to have a non-pcap version of wireshark? If someone

Hallo,
inspired by the way too late demise of HAVE_LIBGCRPYT I've done a rough
count of other variables. I include everything with 9+ occurrences below:
9 AIRPDCAP_DEBUG
9 DEBUG_FRAGMENTS
9 HAVE_IGE_MAC_INTEGRATION
9 HAVE_LIBCAP
9 WIMAX_16D_2004
10 ALG_USERETRY
10 HAVE_BPF_IMAG
