+_Description: Should non-superusers be able to capture packets?
+ Dumpcap can be installed in a way that allows members of the "wireshark"
+ system group to capture packets. This is recommended over the
+ alternative of running Wireshark/Tshark directly as root, because
+ less of the code will run with elevated privileges.
+ .
+ For more detailed information please see
+ /usr/share/doc/wireshark-common/README.Debian.
+ .
+ Enabling this feature may be a security risk, so it is disabled by
+ default. If in doubt, it is suggested to leave it disabled.
