Try cvsuping your ports tree if wireshark isn't located at: /usr/ports/net/wireshark I would try that before anything else. Thats because trying to deal with packages after I've updated everything else usually turns out to be far more keystrokes than 'make install clean'. :) HTH. WizLayer -- Life is better with a BSD.
