Re: Wireshark on Kali linux

default way it's built, using the "package for systems that run everything

system where you *don't* run everything as root, so that you can leave the
safety checks in place, won't be appropriate for Kali.

I was thinking to something like maintaining a list of debian derivative
that have just the root account (the version checked with lsb_release) and
run something on them during the installation phase.

That was my first try. Something like error -> warning, but I didn't find
anything useful. Are you aware of something?
