Do you have /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.6.dylib? I believe that's the file that's being looked for by the ports you're installing, and it should be there as part of Apple's X11. If it's not there, reinstall X11User.pkg and X11SDK.pkg. I know you said you already have them installed, but maybe the installation got damaged somehow. Reinstalling from the original packages would ensure it's working correctly.
Unless you want to use XFree86 instead, which you could do. In that case, do what the message says and move /usr/X11R6 out of the way first, or delete it. If you go this route, delete the X11 receipts too, and X11.app.
I'd rather not install XFree86, as I'm using Apple's X11 for other things as well, and I'd hate to somehow mess that up... The libX11.6.dylib is present on my system, and it's also not zero size (I checked for the obvious "damaged file"-case)... Where can I get the most current X11User.pkg and X11SDK.pkg-files from?
For Mac OS X 10.4:
X11User.pkg should be here:
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/x11update2006113.html
It says it requires an existing X11 install, so you may have to install X11User.pkg from your Mac OS X 10.4 install DVD/CD first. Or it may be ok with what you have on your hard drive now.
X11SDK.pkg is part of Xcode 2.4.1 which you download from Apple Developer Connection.
For Mac OS X 10.3:
X11User.pkg is here:
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/x11formacosx.html
Xcode 1.5 is the last version that works with Mac OS X 10.3 and X11SDK.pkg should be a part of that.
Thanks a lot, it works now! After some problems with gtk-warnings that I could solve thanks to google, wireshark actually runs :) But I still have question... I have to open Terminal, and then type "open-x11 wireshark". When I launch X11 directly, my .profile is ignored somehow... I found on Apple's website that the X11-app uses the same settings as the application that launched it, so is there a way to force it to use .profile? I hope this didn't sound totally confused... Thanks Sebastian
