Hi, I have a small change in the Wiki, probably not worth creating an account for this. The steps here to build Wireshark using homebrew recommend some unnecessary and invasive changes in /usr/local. https://wiki.wireshark.org/BuildingAndInstalling It would be great if someone could update it. I would also recommend using Xcode for developing on the mac. Remove: Special step to work around bug in Qt/Homebrew: brew link --force qt5 && ln -s /usr/local/Cellar/qt5/5.3.2/mkspecs /usr/local/mkspecs && ln -s /usr/local/Cellar/qt5/5.3.2/plugins /usr/local/plugins Replace with: export PATH=/usr/local/opt/qt5/bin:$PATH You can also use Xcode to build and debug wireshark: mkdir build && cd build && cmake -G Xcode ../ will create a project file On the first start don't autogenerate the targets, just add wireshark (with the application icon) manually. Thanks! David
