tag 438733 - confirmed
thanks

Removing "confirmed" tag, and closing bug: lanmap is designed to
run as root, since it needs raw access to the network interface, as
illustrated below:

  ~ # sudo chmod 777 /usr/share/lanmap
  ~ # lanmap -vvv -o /tmp
  verbosity level 3
  using interfaces...
  reporting every 60 seconds...
  8459 records loaded from /usr/share/lanmap//data/mac_vendor
  Couldn't find default interface: no suitable device found
  generating final report...
  ====== 0 Machines =======
  cmd:twopi -Tpng -o /usr/share/lanmap//tmp.lanmap lanmap.dot && mv 
/usr/share/lanmap//tmp.lanmap /tmp/lanmap.png && rm lanmap.dot
  done.
  ~ # echo $?
  1
  ~ #

Cheers,
