I think it's referring to running the dissection code with as few
privileges as possible. The PrivilegeSeparation page on the wiki as a
little more information.

[Wireshark-dev] privilege separation

2012-05-18 Thread Ed Beroset
On the Wireshark wish list is "Add privilege separation for POSIX environments 
(in progress)."  What's left to do on that one?  Apply the privilege during a 
"make install"?
