configure Problem with Debian/GNU Linux and 2.0.6

[Carter Bullard]

Hey Dietmar,
When the configure script detects that a system pcap
library is going to be used, it looks in these directories
for pcap.h:

   /usr/local/include/pcap /usr/include /usr/include/pcap

so the question is, are you sure that pcap.h is in
one of these directories?

The code for doing this is in ./aclocal.m4, line 548.
If you make a modifications, you will need to run
autoconf, in order to generate a new ./configure
script.

Please send mail soon if you're still having problems.

Carter

  Hello,

i cannot cnfigure the new Argus release under Debian/testing:

checking for local pcap library... no
checking for main in -lpcap... yes
yes -lpcap
checking for pcap.h... no
configure: error: cannot find pcap.h
./configure: line 5430: exit: see: numeric argument required
./configure: line 5430: exit: see: numeric argument required

The pcap library is installed (Debian package, so pcap.h is under
/usr/include) and i can compile argus-2.0.6 beta 14 without a problem.

How can i debug this further?

  Ciao
    Dietmar
