Re: Linking on OSX Sierra

Hi Francisco,

That looks to me that the Wireshark splash image isn’t properly packed. There are two version of it, one standard 
(called wssplash.png) which is used in the released versions, and one development (called wssplash_dev.png) which is 
used in the development versions. Somehow the applicable graphic is not available. Someone with knowledge of the macOS 
packaging might have a clue. 

In the mean time, this shouldn’t really hold you back improving your change, as it can be reviewed/tested in Wireshark 
(Qt). Are you still pursuing this?

Thanks,
Jaap

hi All,

i have been following the thread as it was impossible for me to install Wireshark from the sources in Sierra -the 
previous El Capitan installation worked nicely-.

i have tried the steps described in README.macos, afterwards i have installed the ‘required' ports but my install 
hangs because of an error on ‘uic-qt5’. finally i did configure successfully disabling qt, but wireshark-gtk stops 
because of a missed image file.

after a week and several compilations on OS X Sierra, i can asses wireshark-gtk execution hangs on this error:

(process:90095): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: gsignal.c:2475: signal `realize' is invalid for instance `0x7fc36b00f060' 
of type `(null)'
**
ERROR:gui_utils.c:2076:GdkPixbuf *ws_gdk_pixbuf_new_from_resource(const char *): assertion failed (err == NULL): El 
recurso en «/org/wireshark/image/wssplash_dev.png» no existe ((null), 0)
Abort trap: 6

you can build and run using Qt from qt.io -impossible for me using MacPorts-.

regards.

i please ask for any guidance on my journey. sorry if my problem is a trivial one.

thanks, regards.

pd.- i can post the specific errors if required.

Just for fun I did a quick search for that Usage output (minus the "Wireshark" prefix which is clearly $0) and 
found this program which has that exact output:

https://github.com/the-tcpdump-group/libpcap/blob/master/tests/capturetest.c

Yeah, that's one of a pile of test programs I wrote to test various libpcap features.

The binary is *not* part of a libpcap installation, so there shouldn't be an executable for it unless the test 
programs were built.

Evan, what happens if you remove the build directory entirely, re-create it, do a cmake in it, and then redo the 
build?

Completely blowing away the build directory and starting again seems
to have fixed it. That was really weird, especially since (to my
knowledge) I don't even have a source build of libpcap on this
machine.

Anywho, thanks everyone for the help!


CMake standard repair #1 :-)
