Public bug reported: Binary package hint: wireshark
I expect wireshark to be able to decode SNMP PDUs symbolically. Instead it only shows them numerically. E.g. I expect the more meaningful "IF-MIB::IfInOctets.12" instead of ".1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.10.12". This is because current wireshark packages do not include support for SMI ( == the ability to decode SNMP packages symbolically). If llibsmi2-dev is installed prior to building wireshark's packages from the source package, then wireshark does get SNMP decoding functionality. Therefore I suggest introducing libsmi2-dev as a build dependency, so that wireshark can decode SNMP properly. That, in turn, automatically makes libsmi2ldbl a dependency for the binary packages.
