Wireshark-dev: [Wireshark-dev] Problems building on Mac

Date: Tue, 14 Feb 2012 12:14:05 +0000
Hi,

I am trying to build Wireshark on a Mac running OS X 10.6.8 and I'm having 
problems.

I started by downloading the source for wireshark 1.6.5 and used mac ports 
to install
the necessary libraries.

I ran 
make distclean
autogen.sh
configure
make

All that appeared to run OK and I get an executable that I can run.

I then tried to build a package using

make osx-package

This resulted in the error

CREATE WIRESHARK PACKAGE

ERROR: The specified document is invalid: 
/Users/quantel/wireshark-1.6.5/packaging/macosx/Wireshark package.pmdoc

I found a bug report and patch file on the Wireshark web site that 
suggests it fixes this. So
I ran that and now I get the error

Building Wireshark 1.6.5 Intel 64
  Building Wireshark 1.6.5 Intel 64
  Creating shell
  Copying resources
    ERROR: Could not copy resources to "en.lproj".
  Creating Distribution Script
  Constructing flat mpkg
make: *** [osx-package] Error 1

Not really being a Mac expert, I'm now stuck. So any help would be much 
appreciated.

Regards

Andy Ling
