Change subject: Use dumpcap for ttcn3-tcpdump-*.sh if available
......................................................................


Patch Set 3:

> I really like the idea and I'm surprised we didn't do this sooner.  However,

> b) the current user has the right group/permission

You're right. Moreover, on some system it might not have setuid-root but still 
allow users to capture traffic due to capabilities set:
getcap /usr/bin/dumpcap
/usr/bin/dumpcap = cap_net_admin,cap_net_raw+eip
so we can't just check for the bit either.

I'll check how we can make this check more robust.
