Bug Description

Please upgrade kismet to Kismet-2008-05-R1 released on Thursday, 29-May-2008 19:42:13 UTC after it enters Intrepid.

Some improvements :
                     wrt54 fixes
                     Multiple Darwin fixes
                     GPS rewrite and fixes
                     Nokia tweaks
                     Imagemagick fixes

In Hardy and Intrepid people who have intel 3945/4965 can't use kismet any more because the Kismet-2007-01-R1 only supports ipw3945/ipw4965 which are deprecated. iwl3945 and iwl4965 are added as capture backends in this new version which solves this particular problem.
