setArgusDevice: pcap_findalldevs SIOCGIFFLAGS: bonding_masters: No such device

[John Jenkinson]

have used argus without bonding 
but added other services to the same machine that require bonding 
so
added bonding
now those other services work, tcpdump works
but argus now gives the error
setArgusDevice: pcap_findalldevs SIOCGIFFLAGS:
bonding_masters: No such device
i've checked bonding_masters, etc. but can't see why i'm
getting this error.
setArgusDevice: pcap_findalldevs SIOCGIFFLAGS: bonding_masters: No such device
not using an argus config file   all options
on the command line.
checked the archives and don't see this error mentioned.
