I recently compiled wireshark under MacOS X 10.4.7 on a intel machine. This time I succeeded even with GTK+2 after fiddling with a lot of options. I'm preparing an installer for it for users without "fink" or "darwin ports".
But while using it, I find out a strange behaviour.
I'm capturing data on a linux machine (fedora5) with tcpdump -s0 -wdumpfile.cap. Transfer the file to the mac and try to open it with wireshark. I get weird errors saying it couldnt open it because packet size is bigger than 65k or something like that. Same is if I capture with ethereal on that linux box and transfer the file to the mac. I can capture on the mac fine with tcpdump and read it on the mac with wireshark but whatever comes from that linux machine is not working.
Is this a endian problem maybe? I never had this issue with previous versions of wireshark. I built 0.99.3a.
