This file tries to help building Wireshark for (Mac) OS X (Wireshark
does not work on earlier versions of Mac OS).

After you have installed those libraries:

+If you are building from a Git tree, rather than from a source
distribution tarball, run the autogen.sh script. This should not be
necessary if you're building from a source distribution tarball, unless
you've added new source files to the Wireshark source.

make distclean

sequence. The macosx-setup.sh script uses iconv to convert the man page
files from ISO 8859-1 to UTF-8.

+If you want to build Wireshark installer packages on a system that
+doesn't include Xcode 3.x or earlier, you will need to install some
+additional tools. From the Xcode menu, select the Open Developer Tool
+menu, and then select More Developer Tools... from that menu. That will
+open up a page on the Apple Developer Connection Web site; you may need
+a developer account to download the additional tools. Download the
+Auxiliary Tools for Xcode package; when the dmg opens, drag all its
+contents to the Contents/Applications subdirectory of the Xcode.app
+directory (normally /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Applications); then
+copy .../Contents/Applications/PackageMaker.app/Contents/MacOS/PackageMaker
+to /usr/bin/packagemaker (the PackageMaker app, when run from the
+command line rather than as a double-clicked app, is the packagemaker
+command).
