It is on Ethernet jumbo-capable Intel, Broadcom, and some others. It looks
like the original tcpdump developer hard-coded 1516 when he probably meant 1514.

Are you saying that rather than adding an option to ignore
snapshot_length/packet size discrepancies it might be best to not generate
these warnings?

Hello,
I'm trying to compile SVN 50510. After running ./configure --with-gtk2

I have already installed successfully version SVN 50460. I'm guessing there is
some problem with libtool?
I'm using Ubuntu 13.04 virtualised on VMware Fusion 5.0.3.
