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.
Presumably that wasn't the root volume (so the pathname was /Volumes/
Users HD/Users/huntc rather than just /Users/huntc).
To rectify this problem I modified the following scripts:
1. Wireshark.app/Contents/Resources/etc/pango/pangorc
Was that change necessary? That's a Pango configuration file, not a
shell script, so it *might* not require ${HOME} to be protected - or
it might require that.
If it was necessary, file a bug at
https://bugs.wireshark.org/
2. Wireshark.app/Contents/Resources/bin/wireshark
That's bug 2844:
https://bugs.wireshark.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=2844
which should be fixed in the 1.0.5 release.
3. Wireshark.app/Contents/Resources/script
File a bug at the Bugzilla site mentioned above, or if you filed a bug
for change 1, add this to that bug.
