Yuri,
Good morning. Thanks for the feedback. Would I need to run the
./configure and make commands only in the PF_RING/package/ubuntu folder
before I build my deb file as noted before or is there a seperate deb build
step specific to the userland lib content? Forgive the dumb questions
here. Thanks.
