Today I tried to compile 3.3rc1 on Etch, and failed. There's a problem between the two development packages of libpcap (libpcap0.7-dev and libpcap0.8-dev). In 0.7 there an undefined function, and in 0.8 it lacks an include file.
Tonight I also tried on Sid, and it fails with the same messages. * With libpcap0.7 / libpcap0.7-dev : ------------------------------------- gcc -g -O2 -I/usr/local/include -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wmissing-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -fPIC -DPIC -g -O2 -I/usr/local/include -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wmissing-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -fPIC -DPIC -o .libs/ntop ntop-main.o ntop-admin.o -L/usr/local/lib ./.libs/libntopreport ./.libs/libntop /usr/lib/libxml2.so -lcrypt -lc -lssl -lcrypto -lresolv -lnsl -lpcap /usr/lib/libgdbm.so /usr/lib/libgd.so -L/usr/lib /usr/lib/libjpeg.so -lpng12 /usr/lib/librrd_th.so -lpthread /usr/lib/libfreetype.so -lpng -lz /usr/lib/libart_lgpl_2.so -lm -Wl,--rpath -Wl,/usr/local/lib ./.libs/libntop: undefined reference to `pcap_datalink_val_to_description' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status * With libpcap0.8 / libpcap0.8-dev : ------------------------------------- In file included from address.c:21: ntop.h:339:23: error: net/bpf.h: No such file or directory make[2]: *** [address.lo] Erreur 1 I tried settings defines in config.h without success (HAVE_DLT_VAL_TO_DESC). Next, the CVS version. It compiles ! ************************************************************ * Rhaaaa ! I see why it failed with libpcap0.8 ! * * I MUST run ./configure after installing libpcap0.8-dev ! * ************************************************************ It seems to work better but It's 00:47 here, there is not much traffic now, let's see tomorrow. PS: 3.3 looks nice, great improvements on RRD graphs ! I hope there will be a backport for Debian Etch.
