Duplicate of #48835. Current version of Wireshark is incompatible with the current version of lua.

If you do not need support for lua scripting, you may install Wireshark without it as a workaround in the meantime:

sudo port uninstall wireshark; sudo port install wireshark -lua

Since Apple's XCode 7.0 update, I cannot build wireshark at all, with or without -lua. I am on OS X 10.10.5, and after the update /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/ contains MacOSX10.11.sdk but not MacOSX10.10.sdk. I'm not sure if that is some kind of intentional change on Apple's part, but wireshark's configure doesn't like it.

Replying to mopihopi@…:

This is a different issue from the one reported here. The log provided by peter@... shows a build failure due to changes in the lua port, while yours is a configure failure due to a missing SDK.

I would normally recommend you to open a new ticket over this, but your issue is not linked to the Wireshark port, or to MacPorts either: a lot of ports will fail to compile if you do not have the SDK matching your system version. It seems to be an intentional move by Apple: the ​download page for Xcode shows that only the OS X 10.11 SDK is included. It may be appropriate to ​file a bug report with Apple over this. Meanwhile, I would suggest that you set Xcode 6 to be your default compiler as a workaround:

sudo xcode-select -s /path/to/Xcode6/Xcode.app
