snap install termshark
```

After installation, it requires some additional permissions:

```bash
snap connect termshark:network-control
snap connect termshark:bluetooth-control
snap connect termshark:firewall-control
snap connect termshark:ppp
snap connect termshark:raw-usb
snap connect termshark:removable-media
```
