wellenreiterII_rc2_v4 needs libpcap.so.0 (I have three versions of libpcap IPKs)
Looking at the below descriptions of three different versions of libcap, wellenreiter needs the contents of libpcap_0.8.3 from the year 2004. I tried running wellenreiter with libpcap 0.9.7, and it complains about missing library: libpcap.so.0 So I made a symlink of libpcap.a and named it libpcap.so.0 It complains about version information. Since libpcap 0.9.7 is the latest upgrade in pdaxii13v2, where do I get libpcap.so.0 ? I could uninstall the newer version and install the "0.8.3 year 2004" version, but there must be a better way to accomplish this? There are two versions of libpcap_0.8.3 ------------------------------ libpcap_0.8.3 from the year 2004 has the following: /usr/lib/ libpcap.a libpcap.so libpcap.so.0 libpcap.so.0.8 ------------------------------ libpcap_0.8.3 from the year 2006 has the following: /usr/local/lib/ libpcap.a /usr/local/include/ pcap-bpf.h pcap-namedb.h pcap.h ----------------------------- The latest version from the pdaxii13v2 feed is libpcap_0.9.7 ----------------------------- This version has the following: /usr/local/lib/ libpcap.a /usr/local/include/ pcap-bpf.h pcap-namedb.h pcap.h ----------------------------- |
