Caveat: If this DOCSIS bug is not documented, you should add it to the bug database.
Using multiple Wireshark installations
Create a directory for alternative installations ( On Windows, I would use "C:\Users\[you]\wiresharks" and on *nix, ~/wiresharks ). Install any other editions of Wireshark to this directory and add a desktop icon that points to Wireshark.exe in the new installation location (would be C:\Users\\wiresharks).
On *nix, you can add something like this to your ~/.bashrc:
alias wireshark266='/home/<usr>/wiresharks/wireshark2.6.6/wireshark'
depending on where the wireshark binary is. On Macos, you may need to link to ~/wiresharks/Wireshark.app/contents/MacOS/wireshark instead.
