#13 Unable to install

[Jason]

Hi,

I have installed libpcap and libpcap-devel, but I'm getting the below issue. Any help?

Thanks

[root@master-server pcapsipdump-code]# make
make-checks/libpcap.cpp: In function ‘int main()’:
make-checks/libpcap.cpp:2: error: ‘pcap_set_snaplen’ was not declared in this scope

Hi Jason,

Apparently the version of libpcap-devel you have installed doesn't export pcap_set_snaplen() function.

Which version is that?

Hi

Package 14:libpcap-0.9.4-15.el5.i386
Package 14:libpcap-devel-0.9.4-15.el5.i386

Indeed, it's not there. I'll have a look later if it is possible to support libpcap 0.9 without breaking compatibility with 1.x.

Meanwhile, try version 0.2 - it has few features missing, but should be compatible with the libpcap-0.9-style calls:

ok thanks

Just to update using the version you suggest works fine, thanks again!
