wireshark @1.8.6_2: configure cannot find gtk2

[dershow]

I have wireshark 1.8.6_1 installed and just tried to upgrade to 1.8.6_2, but it fails in the configuration stage:

--->  Computing dependencies for wireshark
--->  Configuring wireshark
Error: org.macports.configure for port wireshark returned: configure failure: command execution failed
Please see the log file for port wireshark for details:

Error: Unable to upgrade port: 1

My log file concludes as follows:

But I do have a normal macports install of gtk+ and Qt:

qt4-mac @4.8.4_6 (active)

gtk2 @2.24.18_0+universal+x11 (active)

So, it seems that wireshark is somehow not looking in the right place when it is building?

Please clean wireshark, try upgrading again, and attach main.log.

Problem is probably caused by the icu update. I'd expect some library still links against the old (now missing) icu and the test binary thus fails to execute. Finding the broken library and revbumping it should fix this.

main.log for wireshark upgrade

[dershow]

I did notice that icu an upgrade at the same time from 49.1.2_1 to 51.2_0. Why should something completely different, that links against icu, cause a wireshark problem? What I see depending on icu, on my system is just:

$port dependents icu
boost depends on icu
gimp2 depends on icu
harfbuzz depends on icu
webkit-gtk depends on icu

I just did another clean and upgrade, and I am attaching the full log.

Replying to dersh@…:

I did notice that icu an upgrade at the same time from 49.1.2_1 to 51.2_0. Why should something completely different, that links against icu, cause a wireshark problem?

Because gtk2 might link against icu, because it links against harfbuzz and autotools magic pulls in each and every dependent library in the linking process.

I just did another clean and upgrade, and I am attaching the full log.

Unfortunately main.log isn't very helpful in this case. Please locate config.log in $(port work wireshark) and also attach that.

error: Linking with liblua failed

[leonfauster@…]

port install wireshark +no_lua runs through

[neverpanic (Clemens Lang)]

That's two different errors. One is:

dyld: Library not loaded: /opt/local/lib/libicule.49.dylib
  Referenced from: /opt/local/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.0.dylib
  Reason: image not found

which should already be fixed. Run selfupdate and upgrade outdated.

The other one is that Lua's API changed and wireshark isn't compatible with Lua 5.2.
