----------------------------------+-----------------------------------------
 For some number of releases going back at least to 1.0.6, wireshark has
 replaced net-snmp for mib decoding, instead using libsmi.  At least as of
 wireshark 1.0.6, our port can trivially be modified to support a libsmi
 variant:

 variant libsmi {
         configure.args-append   --with-libsmi
         depends_lib-append      port:libsmi
 }

 I was able to build a functional, mib translating wireshark using libsmi
 for wireshark 1.0.6 with this change.  I have not tried for 1.2.4 but it
 would seem likely to work here as well.

 It may not even make sense to have a net-snmp variant any longer because I
 believe wireshark will not use it even if asked for (should be verified).
