Dear Debian maintainer,

On Sunday, August 30, 2009, I sent you a notification about the beginning of a 
review
action on debconf templates for wireshark.

Then, I sent you a bug report with rewritten templates and announcing
the beginning of the second phase of this action: call for translation
updates.

Translators have been working hard and here is now the result of their efforts.

Please consider using it EVEN if you committed files to your
development tree as long as they were reported.

The attached tarball contains:

- debian/changelog with the list of changes
- debian/control with rewrites of packages' descriptions
- debian/<templates> with all the rewritten templates file(s)
- debian/po/*.po with all PO files (existing ones and new ones)

As said, please use *at least* the PO files as provided here,
preferrably over those sent by translators in their bug reports. All
of them have been checked and reformatted. In some cases, formatting
errors have been corrected.

The patch.rfr file contains a patch for the templates and control
file(s) alone.

Please note that this patch applies to the templates and control
file(s) of your package as of Sunday, August 30, 2009. If your package was 
updated
in the meantime, I may have updated my reference copy....but I also
may have missed that. This is indeed why I suggested you do not
modified such files while the review process was running,
remember..:-)

It is now safe to upload a new package version with these changes.

Please notify me of your intents with regards to this. 

There is of course no hurry to update your package but feel free to
contact me in case you would need sponsoring or any other action to
fix this.

-_Description: Do you want dumpcap to be installed setuid root?
+_Description: Should dumpcap be installed "setuid root"?
  Dumpcap can be installed with the set-user-id bit set, so members of
- group wireshark will be able to run it with the permissions of the 
- 'root' user. It is the preferred way of capturing packets using 
- Wireshark/Tshark over running Wireshark/Tshark as root, because that 
- way most of the code will run with less priveges.
+ the "wireshark" system group will have the privileges required to use it.
+ This way of capturing packets using Wireshark/Tshark is recommended
+ over the alternative of running them directly as superuser, because
+ less of the code will run with elevated privileges.
  .
  Enabling this feature may be a security risk, so it is disabled by
- default.  If in doubt, it is suggested to leave it disabled.
