administrative users or a certain accounts can sniff. Maybe there
is a solution people use for Wireshark or does it always cause this
issue (allowing any user to sniff the network) when it is installed?

o Dependency licensing issues (OpenSSL, Python, GTK+, etc.)
o We should do an audit to ensure that we are in complete compliance for the
licenses of all the software we ship in any of our downloads, as some
licenses have special clauses for things like including their
license/copyright file, mentioning them in our documentation, etc.

doesn't require it. We should probably make a list of these in our

their license. And maybe we should put the current licenses in a
subdir too. In particular, these come to mind:
