Your ports are out of date if they're still trying to fetch wireshark  
0.99.5. The port was updated to 0.99.6 in r26752 on 2007-07-05.  
Please "sudo port selfupdate" and then try installing wireshark  
again. Remember to use selfupdate often when working with MacPorts.

If you still experience problems after selfupdate, show us the exact  
error.


Eric, here's a patch which enables people to fetch old versions, even  
after a newer one is released. This would help the wireshark port be  
more robust. I'll be happy to commit it if you don't object.
