Installer suggestion

Hello, I have a suggestion for the nmap installer.
When I was installing nmap for Windows this morning, it told me that it was skipping install of pcap because a given 
version was already installed (I had installed wireshark yesterday.) Unfortunately I was unable to find what version it 
would install if I removed it and ran the installer again.
My suggestion is to explicitly state that "pcap version xx.xx.xx is not being installed because version yy.yy.yy is 
already installed." and then the rest of the message as it stands about how you can manually uninstall it and rerun the 
installer.

Regards,
Jonathan Mertz
