    <para><application>SIMtrace</application> will need a patched version of
    <application>wireshark</application> and the <command>simtrace</command>
    host utility to fully operate. The installation might be possible from
    binary packages or will require building from source. The following
    sections provide some hints how to achieve this on the various Linux
    distributions. All these operations must be executed as root.</para>

      <title>Wireshark Patches</title>
      <para>The SIMtrace patch has been upstreamed. Wireshark 1.7.1 was released
      on April the 6th 2012 and is the first development release to support SIMtrace
      out of the box. Wireshark 1.8 will be the first stable version.
