The Qt 5.x binaries from the Qt Project are apparently being built to require libc++.1, which 10.6 doesn't have, so we'll need to build the Qt binaries ourselves, with the appropriate "target this for 10.6 or later" build flags.

I have found the same issue. The 1.11.0 build from the Wireshark website crashes due to a QT bug, that is supposed to be fixed in QT 5.1.1. I am assuming Wireshark is not using this new QT version in the build process (yet)?

Sorry, my bad. This is a problem with 10.6, my problem is with 10.9

Can you try one of the recent packages at http://www.wireshark.org/download/automated/osx/ ? The 64-bit installer should now work on OS X 10.6 and later and be properly signed as well.

Hi,

I just tried "Wireshark 1.11.1-SVN-53248 Intel 64.dmg".

It works properly now. Thank you.

(and the new GUI is beautiful!! ;-) )
