Comment (by mdeaudelin@…):

 Replying to [comment:3 hadrielk@…]:
 >  2. Qt5 is the default GUI now, not GTK. I don't know how macports
 handles defaults, so I can't tell what it considers default for the GUI.

 The default is set in the Portfile, around line 70. We previously used
 +x11 (the GTK2 port) unless the user asked otherwise, but I have changed
 it to +qt5 in my patch.

 >  3. I don't see a dependency on asciidoc, but that is needed when
 building the docs now - it started back in 1.10 or 1.11 if I recall. The
 docs aren't built by default, so you may have missed it. (or I may have
 missed it in the lists)

 Neither the wireshark nor wireshark-devel ports have built the docs so
 far, so I was not building them either, thus the dependency is not
 required. However, it would probably be useful to create a variant for
 that, such as +docs. I'll look into it, but it may be good to split it in
 another ticket targeting both ports.

 > Forgot one more comment: the current portfile appears to reference the
 port "lua", which is currently Lua 5.2. But if/when Ticket #46621 is
 resolved, that will make port "lua" point to Lua 5.3, which Wireshark will
 not compile with. I don't know how to prevent that from happening, since
 there is no port "lua52" to reference currently. I guess I'll comment on
 it in that ticket.

 Thanks for pointing this out, as we need to keep it in mind. Until they
 split lua52 and lua53 from the lua port, there isn't much we can do
 though.
