There is a Debian bug report (#82868) about this as well and I have to
say I have not idea what's going on here. From the report:
| tcpdump: listening on eth1
| tcpdump: WARNING: compensating for unaligned libpcap packets
I can't reproduce this here and I did not yet check the source.
Perhaps this is really simple? Can somebody enlighten me?
Thanks
