Wireshark 1.4.4 - configure failure

[nick@…]

OS X 10.6.6, XCode 3.2.5 (1760)

Wireshark presently fails to finish installing, failing at the 'Configuring' stage. This has occurred even after an uninstall and clean of wireshark.

Terminal output:

The aformentioned log file is attached. Glancing through it, the following lines appear particularly relevant, but I may be mistaken:

:info:configure checking for GTK+ - version >= 2.4.0... no
:info:configure *** Could not run GTK+ test program, checking why...
:info:configure *** The test program compiled, but did not run. This usually means
:info:configure *** that the run-time linker is not finding GTK+ or finding the wrong
:info:configure *** version of GTK+. If it is not finding GTK+, you'll need to set your
:info:configure *** LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable, or edit /etc/ld.so.conf to point
:info:configure *** to the installed location  Also, make sure you have run ldconfig if that
:info:configure *** is required on your system
:info:configure ***
:info:configure *** If you have an old version installed, it is best to remove it, although
:info:configure *** you may also be able to get things to work by modifying LD_LIBRARY_PATH
:info:configure configure: error: GTK+ 2.4 or later isn't available, so Wireshark can't be compiled

Please remember to cc the maintainer. Attach the config.log; it should have details of how the test program failed.

Okay, I'm not sure if I was merely a dumbass or if something else was amiss, but I took the next logical step since GTK+ appeared problematic by uninstalling it and reinstalling it and then wireshark built successfully. Sorry for the trouble.
