Package: libpcap0.8
Version: 1.8.1-6

That version of the package has a patch, patches/bluez-build.diff, that 
"[Includes] bluetooth/mgmt.h in bt-monitor compile test to make it fail with 
BlueZ 5.x."

This has already caused at least one complaint with Wireshark running on a 
Debian derivative, Linux Mint (well, a derivative of a derivative...):

Please remove this, so that people can use the bluetooth-monitor device on 
Debian - and on its derivatives, once it trickles down to all the derivatives.  
I built the current master-branch versions of libpcap and tcpdump on Ubuntu 
18.04, and they work Just Fine, at least on my VMware Fusion VM with my Mac's 
Bluetooth adapter turned on (they may have found some problems in the Wireshark 
*dissector* for Bluetooth monitor messages, but that's another matter).
