This has been fixed.

Fixed (I think)

I opened a Pull Request for this.

Some of the patches, are already been cherry picked from you in your master 
branch

This patch starts from the kali branch that is "exactly" as the 0.8.0 version, 
and merges kali, your and my patches into a single commit

https://github.com/barak/ettercap/pull/8

Can you please review it?

It should be fine right now

thanks


Gianfranco (who would be glad to comaintain the package)
