Feb 07 18:11:43 kali kernel: wireshark[12812]: segfault at 10 ip 00007f9282748db3 sp 00007fff38970328 error 6 in liblua5.2.so.0.0.0[7f9282741000+31000]

i've been tearing my hair looking everywhere for a solution to this. From what I've found, wireshark should be launching with qt. is there a way to launch and force qt or disable gtk? I'm at a loss here. Thanks for any help.

UPDATE:
building from source worked just fine, but the version in the repo is still broken in XFCE and Gnome.
