I don't think so. About a month ago I played around with building on OS X using homebrew packages instead of macosx-setup.sh. Jörg helped me fix a few things at Sharkfest, and I believe (though I haven't recently verified) that [1] is the only thing standing in the way of building wireshark (with cmake) using only homebrew packages, i.e. without running macosx-setup.sh at all. In fact, I believe my current macbook still builds Wireshark entirely from homebrew (with some extra manual symlinks added to work around [1]). I have no idea how autotools would behave with a similar setup, but if it is also happy it might be worth simplifying macosx-setup.sh to: - install the appropriate brew packages - add symlinks to work around [1] Thoughts?
