_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.
