Ok, fontconfig says it can't find expat. But expat is definitely  
declared as a dependency of fontconfig (see "port deps fontconfig").  
So the expat port should definitely be installed. Is it? Also, are  
using using the latest MacPorts, 1.4.3? I believe you are, since  
earlier in the thread we advised you to selfupdate which should have  
updated you to 1.4.3.

After you removed Fink, did you rebuild all the ports you already  
installed with MacPorts? If not, I recommend doing that, since I  
can't say for certain that they were built correctly in the presence  
of Fink. Easiest might be to get the list of installed ports ("port  
installed") and for each one, just uninstall it ("sudo port -f  
uninstall <portname>"). Then install wireshark, which should  
reinstall all its dependencies.
