[Solved] Wireshark not launching in KDE plasma - symbol lookup error

wireshark-qt-4.2.5-1
Plasma 6.0.5
WM kwin
kernel: linux-6.9.1.arch1-2-x86_64
lts-kernel: linux-lts-6.6.31-2-x86_64
qt version: 6.7.1
X11

Anyone else having issues with wirshark-qt?  After the latest update I get the following error:

wireshark: symbol lookup error: wireshark: undefined symbol: _ZNK10QAudioSink5errorEN2Qt15Disambiguated_tE, version Qt_6

Saw a few similar issues in searches a couple of months ago.  Tried;
- reinstalling wireshark-qt,
- removing $HOME/.config/wireshark, reinstall again
-  downgraded wireshark-qt to version 4.2.4-2

Seems like the issue is with the latest qt version and may open a bug with wireshark directly, but would like to  know if anyone has had this issue on Arch before doing so, and any resolutions if available.
tshark working fine.

Works fine here.  6.9.2 mainline kernel. wireshark-qt 4.2.5-2.   Running on wayland rather than X11

Correct looks like version 4.2.5-2 was just released today.   Upgraded it manually and everything is working again.  thanks
