I had trouble installing and running Ethereal on OS X with Darwinports. I know many here prefer Fink, but I wanted to use ports myself.

Re: Install Ethereal on Panther with Darwinports
Wow, this is exactly what I was looking to do just a few hours ago and put it off because it was more involved than I anticipated, especially without Darwin Ports (or Fink) already installed. Until now I've just compiled other third party apps from source as needed but Darwin Ports (which also appeals to me more than Fink) is worth it this time for dealing with all the Ethereal dependencies. Your timely write-up has inspired me to give it a go later. Thanks!

Glad I could help. I've gotten a lot from the online community in my years of IT work, and I'm glad to be able to give back.

Greetings and thanks for the post.
Re: Install Ethereal on Panther with Darwinports
That is something new. Almost looks like some of the dependent files are missing from the ports server. Have you tried again since this time? |
