I've installed ethereal through fink. It seems to be working apart from the fact that when I try captureing packets it locks up my network card and stops all traffic. It doesn't even capture any packets. Any thoughts?

what libraries did you install first? how did you install gtk+ and does it run under x11?

Okay, I tried building it but it requires gtk+ I installed gtk+os x but apparently the version of glib is not a high enough version. I'm also missing pkg-config. Has anyone actually built wireshark on a mac?

I want to install tcpdump and wireshark on my mac. Both of these programs require Pcap to be already installed. I don't think I've installed Pcap however I already have nmap working which also requires Pcap. I'm not sure if Pcap is built in to the nmap code or whether building nmap also installed pcap on my system. Is there an easy way to check if you have Pcap installed or do I just go ahead and build tcpdump and wireshark?
