wireshark - install stable and development builds in OS X

119 views Asked by At

How can I install both (at the time of writing) 1.12.5 and 1.99.6 in OS X 10.8.5?

AFAIK Wireshark installs to the kMDItemCFBundleIdentifier path.

For lack of answers I tried the following. I installed the stable release 1.12.5 first and moved the application bundle to the trash, then I installed the dev version 1.99.6 and renamed the app bundle 'Wireshark [dev build]', next moved the older version from the trash to the applications folder. So far both are working. ChmodBPF and wireshark CLI utility launcher didn't changed. I didn't notice any problems in the install scripts, but I might be wrong.
