The current version of libpcap will, if you try to configure D-Bus support on OS X, fail with the message
Due to freedesktop.org bug 74029, D-Bus capture support is not available on OS X
See
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=74029
for details.
When that bug is fixed, and a version of D-Bus with that fix is available with whatever packaging system you're using, D-Bus sniffing might then work on OS X.

Dyld Error Message:

Reason: image not found
Somehow ATK (used by GTK+) is not configured correctly, or libdbus isn't correctly installed, or something such as that.

You should speak to the brew people about that.
