[Bug 287099] Re: wireshark cannot find network interfaces when not running as root

[Hew McLachlan]

Wireshark needs to be run as root in order to be able to read the
packets; this is simply not possible when run as a user without these
privileges. This behaviour is known and intentional, which is why the
option to run as root is there. Closing for this reason. Thanks for your
report.
