Dear Maintainer,

The new kronosnet-wireshark package has a Depends on the wireshark package.
Although it is certainly possible to use Wireshark in combination with this
plugin, the plugin itself does not plugin to Wireshark. Its dependency it to
libwireshark, which is providing the infrastructure it plugs into. This library
is then subsequently used by other programs which make use of the capabilities
of libwireshark. Examples are Stratoshark, Tshark and indeed Wireshark as well.
Therefore the Depends should be replaced with a Recommends or Suggests, of
wireshark and tshark.

Regards,
Jaap
