Thanks for the answer. I want my program to determistically run on other computers as well, thus I can't assume anything in advance about users' lua script. I had not really thought about compiled plugins but that's the same issue, these optional modules may alter the way my program expects tshark to behave. I believe for my usecase, the best is to wrap the tshark call with an XDG_CONFIG_HOME pointing nowhere or to a vanilla wireshark config. Not sure if there is any difficulty though, I will have a try.
