           Summary: there is no mention in the readme for the precompiled
                    Mac os X binaries that it requires mac os 10.5.x+ or
                    that for systems <10.5.x users will need to use an
                    alternative site.
           Product: Web sites
           Version: N/A
          Platform: All

        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.4
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Enhancement
          Priority: Medium

Build Information:
This ticket is about the readme file of the precompiled binaries dmg files. The
build information is probably useless however I verfied it is the same for
1.0.6 ppc & intel or 1.1.3 PPC
--
Please change the "Read me first.rtf"  of the PPC & intel 1.0.6 & 1.1.3 dmg
files such that it notes that the precompiled builds require Mac os X
10.5.whatever it needs or higher. in order to run. 

To back this up. here is a link to what I have also discoverd about the
/usr/X11 folder & then the outdated libraries. 
https://bugs.wireshark.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=2679

If you want to be really nice put in a link about installing it under 10.4
needing version xyz or lower if nessisary for underlying libraries or possibly
needing to install the open source x11 updates. I don't know yet as I have not
gotten that far yet. 

 I have found but not tried
http://www.csc.gatech.edu/~copeland/3076/info/Install-wireshark-on-MacOS.html
yet.
