 The libwireshark library provides the network packet dissection services
 developed by the Wireshark project.

libwiretap-dev: network packet capture library -- development files

 Wiretap, part of the Wireshark project, is a library that allows one to
 read and write several packet capture file formats.
 .
 Supported formats are:
  * Libpcap
  * Sniffer
  * LANalyzer
