        /usr/lib/libwireshark.la and /usr/lib/libwsutil.la from the
        libwireshark-dev package since external programs linking against
        libwiretap and libwireshark do not need them. Refer to the Debian
        Policy Manual 10.2 ("Libraries") for further information.
    
    wireshark (1.4.0~rc2-2) experimental; urgency=low

    wireshark (1.4.0~rc2-1) experimental; urgency=low
    
      [ Eloy Paris ]
      * New upstream release.
        - Make tshark list interfaces for non-root user (Closes: #582298)
        - Fix duplicate inconsistent attributes in RADIUS dictionary.
          (Closes: #570132)
      * New libwireshark0, libwireshark-dev, libwiretap0, libwiretap-dev
        packages that reorganize libraries, header files, etc. as follows:
        - Moved libwireshark.so.* from package wireshark-common to package
          libwireshark0.
        - Moved libwsutil.so.* from package wireshark-common to package
          libwireshark0.
        - Moved libwiretap.so.* from package wireshark-common to package
          libwiretap0.
        - Moved header files, .so symlinks, and static libraries from package
          wireshark-dev to libwireshark-dev and libwiretap-dev, depending on
          the case.
        - Moved plugins in /usr/lib/wireshark/ from package wireshark-common
          to package libwireshark0.
        This provides more package granularity and allows easier use of
        libraries provided by the Wireshark project by applications that
        are not maintained by the Wireshark project (package kismet currently
        appears to use services offered by libwiretap, and upcoming package
        netexpect will use libwireshark services [see ITP bug #587056]).
      * Dropped 23_lintian-overrides.patch since we no longer have binaries
        with RPATHs because after the library separation work mentioned above
        our libraries are in /usr/lib and not in /usr/lib/wireshark, eliminating
        the need for RPATHs. Also tweaked debian/rules, debian/tshark.files,
        and debian/wireshark-common.files so the lintian overrides
        are not installed.
      * Dropped the following patches since they have been integrated
        upstream:
        - 05_libsnmp_path.patch
        - 07_mib_tip.patch
        - 11_disable_oid_resolution_by_default.patch
        - 12_fix_about_crash.patch
        - 21_dumpcap.patch
    
      [ Balint Reczey ]
      * Dropped the following patches since they have been integrated
        upstream:
        - 10_prevent_libsmi_crash.patch
        - 04_asn2wrs_ply.patch
        - 06_giop-buffer.patch
      * moved platform independent files needed by libwireshark0 to 
        new libwireshark0-data package from wireshark-common
      * New upstream release 1.4.0~rc2
