Hi there,
Firstly, Wireshark is amazing. Thank you for this great tool.
Having installed Wireshark on my Mac OS X Leopard (10.5) laptop
machine already, I was surprised to find launching issues with
Wireshark on my Desktop Leopard machine.
The reason boiled down to my user account existing on a volume that
has a space in the name i.e. "Users HD/Users/huntc". This causes
Wireshark to fail on startup.
To rectify this problem I modified the following scripts:
1. Wireshark.app/Contents/Resources/etc/pango/pangorc
2. Wireshark.app/Contents/Resources/bin/wireshark
3. Wireshark.app/Contents/Resources/script
Wherever I found a reference to ${HOME} I replaced it with "$
{HOME}" (note the surrounding double quotes). Similarly any references
to $HOME were changed to "${HOME}".
All is now well. I hope that others benefit from this report. I would
be happy to raise this as a defect if someone can point me in the
right direction.
Kind regards,
Christopher
