I installed wireshark, with no errors:

The following ports are currently installed:
  wireshark @0.99.6_0+darwin_8 (active)

When I run it, the GUI comes up just fine, but the "List the available capture interfaces" thing comes up blank. I'm connected via wireless,
with no ethernet connection right now.

In case drivers have to be installed or something, I rebooted, but no joy.

/usr/sbin/tcpdump returns:

  tcpdump:  no suitable device found

Is the portfile missing a prerequisite?

You have to run tcpdump and wireshark as root, i.e. with sudo.

It might help new users if the port would print a message to that effect after installation. I'm Cc'ing the maintainer.
