I'm having a problem getting Wireshark up and running via MacPorts and X11 on a 8GB RAM, 140GB free drive space, dual 2GHz G5 tower system with OS X version 10.4.11 and with X11 Update 2006 applied (providing me with X11 v1.1.3). There are no warnings or errors whatsoever during the builds of Wireshark or Macports but when I try to fire up Wireshark from a xterm window under /Utilities/X11, I get a bus error. The version information when I try to run Wireshark from an xterm under X11 that I get is this:

I built Wireshark by using the "sudo port -R install wireshark" command and this seemed to automatically build the wireshark variant as seen below: > zeus:/opt/local/bin kytan$ port installed > The following ports are currently installed: > apr @1.2.11_0 (active) > apr-util @1.2.10_0 (active) > atk @1.20.0_1 (active) > cairo @1.4.10_0 (active) > db4 @4.3.28_0+darwin_7 (active) > db44 @4.4.20_1+darwin_8 (active) > expat @2.0.1_0 (active) > fontconfig @2.5.0_0+macosx (active) > freetype @2.3.5_0 (active) > gettext @0.17_1 (active) > glib2 @2.14.3_0 (active) > gtk2 @2.12.1_0 (active) > jpeg @6b_2 (active) > libiconv @1.12_0+darwin_8 (active) > libpcap @0.9.5_1 (active) > libpng @1.2.23_0+darwin_8 (active) > ncurses @5.6_0+darwin_8 (active) > ncursesw @5.6_0+darwin_8 (active) > neon @0.26.4_0 (active) > openssl @0.9.8g_0+darwin_8 (active) > pango @1.18.3_0 (active) > pkgconfig @0.22_0 (active) > readline @5.2.007_0 (active) > render @0.9_1 (active) > sqlite3 @3.5.2_0+darwin_8 (active) > subversion @1.4.5_0 (active) > tiff @3.8.2_1+darwin_8+macosx (active) > wireshark @0.99.6_0+darwin_8 (active) > Xft2 @2.1.12_0 (active) > xorg-inputproto @1.4.2_0 (active) > xorg-kbproto @1.0.3_0 (active) > xorg-libpthread-stubs @0.1_0 (active) > xorg-libX11 @1.1.3_0 (active) > xorg-libXau @1.0.3_0 (active) > xorg-libxcb @1.0_0 (active) > xorg-util-macros @1.1.5_0 (active) > xorg-xcb-proto @1.0_0 (active) > xorg-xcmiscproto @1.1.2_0 (active) > xorg-xextproto @7.0.2_0 (active) > xorg-xproto @7.0.11_1 (active) > xorg-xtrans @1.0.4_0 (active) > xrender @0.9.0_1+darwin_8 (active) > zlib @1.2.3_1 (active) The following variants are available for building Wireshark: > zeus:/opt/local/bin kytan$ port variants wireshark > wireshark has the variants: > universal > darwin_6 > darwin_7 > darwin_8 > darwin_9 > adns > gnutls > libgcrypt > ipv6 > net_snmp > pcre > no_ssl > no_x11 Should I have built a variant of Wireshark other than the default darwin_8 variant or something other than the latest libpcap, glib, gtk, etc., libraries? Would appreciate any help in getting wireshark to run. I have a crashdump log of Wireshark and can provide that if the above information isn't sufficient for someone to tell me where I went wrong in the compile of Wireshark under MacPorts.
