Package: wireshark
Version: 1.2.11-5
Severity: serious
Section 2.5 of debian policy states that packages MUST NOT depend on
packages with lower priority values (excluding build-time dependencies).
However, wireshark is optional and depends on the extra package
libc-ares2. wireshark also depends on libkrb53, which is also extra on
i386, but according to #609027 it seems that dependency will be removed.

Rafael

This rule was relaxed a bit and the "extra" priority is gone. So
nothing with priority "optional" can violate this rule any longer.
