An 802.11 Wireless Network Sniffer

Edit Package kismet

Kismet is an 802.11 wireless network sniffer. This is different from a
normal network sniffer (such as Ethereal or tcpdump) because it
separates and identifies different wireless networks in the area.
Kismet works with any 802.11b wireless card that is capable of
reporting raw packets (rfmon support), which include any Prism2-based
cards (Linksys, D-Link, Rangelan, and more), Cisco Aironet cards, and
Orinoco-based cards. Kismet also supports the WSP100 802.11b remote
sensor by Network Chemistry and is able to monitor 802.11a networks
with cards that use the ar5k chipset.

- Update to version 2020-09-R3
  * Properly show messages from datasources
  * Properly show error and status messages from opening
    datasources, which previously were ignored. This should make
    seeing errors opening datasources much easier.
  * Fix bluetooth capture on some platforms
  * Some platforms / kernels / setups appear to not enable rfkill.
    The bluetooth hci capture source erroneously failed when no
    rfkill information was available.
  * Remove 221 IE tag subtype match requirement
  * Remove requiring a subtype of 0 on an IE221 tag for matching
    the manufacturer of otherwise unknown devices.
  * Fix potential crash in datasource panel
  * Fix a long-standing potential crash when the datasource panel
    is open in the UI caused by a race condition with the
    constructor and callbacks.
  * Fix race condition in launching datasources
  * Fix a long-standing race condition which could lead to some
    datasources not being opened properly or their types
    autodetected properly due to a race condition with the type
    probe code.
  * Increase precision of some doubles in JSON for GPS
  * Found some legacy serialization code which reduced the
    precision of some doubles (double-vector) which would cause
    GPS to display with less precision.
  * Don’t shut down messagebus processing thread until Kismet is
    fully exiting
  * The messagebus service thread could shut down before Kismet
    had finished spinning down, causing it to not show some of
    the errors causing the shutdown. (forwarded request 835703 from mnhauke)
