Wireshark · Wireshark-dev: [Wireshark-dev] How to avoid the OS X error dyld: Symbol not found: __cg_jpeg_resync_to_restart

[Stephen Fisher <stephentfisher@xxxxxxxxx>]

I've found the fix for the MacOS X error below when running Wireshark 
from the build directory:

--
dyld: Symbol not found: __cg_jpeg_resync_to_restart
  Referenced from: 
/System/Library/Frameworks/ApplicationServices.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/ImageIO.framework/Versions/A/ImageIO
  Expected in: /opt/local/lib/libjpeg.62.dylib

Trace/BPT trap

You just need to upgrade glibtool (libtool).  Download the sources to 
the latest stable version (1.5.22) and run something along the lines of:

  make
  - switch to root -
  make install
  mv /usr/bin/glibtool /usr/bin/glibtool.old
  mv /usr/bin/glibtoolize /usr/bin/glibtoolize.old
  mv /usr/local/bin/libtool /usr/local/bin/glibtool
  mv /usr/local/bin/libtoolize /usr/local/bin/glibtoolize

Then do something to make Wireshark regenerate the wireshark wrapper 
script.  I've found that touching one of the dissector's files and 
running make again does the job.  Anyone know of a better way?

This upgrade allows you to link Wireshark against libjpeg installed from 
MacPorts (DarwinPorts) or Fink just as the default build does.  I've 
filed "feedback" with Apple encouraging them to upgrade their version of 
glibtool because this error comes up a lot in OSS projects if you search 
the web for it.
