You can always "dnf install wireshark*" to install the lot. Similarly,
"dnf list wireshark*" will list all the wireshark packages.

"dnf install wireshark" should have pulled in wireshark-cli since
that's a prerequisite to wireshark. The "/usr/sbin/wireshark" symlink
to "/etc/alternatives/wireshark" (which is, in turn a symlink to
"/usr/sbin/wireshark-gtk" or "/usr/sbin/wireshark-qt") is created by
either wireshark-gtk or wireshark-qt (the GUI frontends to wireshark),
respectively.

wireshark-gtk (which is what I have installed) lists wireshark-cli and
wireshark as prerequisites.

Has your head exploded yet? Mine is threatening to!
