Summary

0015629: A way to install the command-line tool links from the command line would be useful

Description

Now that you no longer have an installer package for OS X, the command-line tools have to be installed by running CMake through the GUI.

For Wireshark, we have a script for OS X to install stuff for building Wireshark from source. That script downloads and installs CMake, which isn't *required* yet but is *supported* (and may eventually become the default or only tool for building).

It'd be nice if it could run some program to install the command-line tools.

(Wireshark also has command-line tools, but that's one of the reasons we *don't* do drag-install. The other is that we also install a launchd launch daemon to make it possible to capture traffic without root privileges.)

Notes
(0038965) Brad King (manager) 2015-06-24 08:48	CMake 3.3 (currently in release candidate and available from the download page) already does this. See the release notes: http://www.cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.3/release/3.3.html [^] "On OS X the cmake-gui(1) no longer has the Install For Command Line Use menu item. Instead there is a How to Install For Command Line Use menu item that shows an informational dialog box explaining how to make the command line tools available."
