Package: wireshark
Version: 1.2.10-1
Severity: important

Wireshark requires an X session, which results in the software being
unrunable on what you would expect to be the target market, i.e. servers.

Try ssh to a server.  Go to root then:
sh-4.1# wireshark -D

(wireshark:15621): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:
