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
