--
The installer puts the normal included plugins (e.g. mate, wimax) in
/Applications/Wireshark.app/Contents/Frameworks/wireshark/plugins, however the
global plugins directory is set to
/Applications/Wireshark.app/Contents/Resources/lib/wireshark/plugins (as it was
in previous versions) so no plugins load at startup. In order to make them load
you have to create this directory and copy the plugins there, or put them in
your personal directory. 

Either the plugins should be moved in the install or the Global Plugins
directory should be updated to point to where they actually are.
