I haven't in mind issues with this simple preinstall script, I ask why wireshark is not actualized in F14/F15 repos too, as there are way old versions (v1.4.10) and both F14/F15 are supported.

F14/15 *are* supported, I've updated them to 1.4.10 recently. However, I don't do rebases (to 1.6.x) there to keep stability of the distro.
