ICMP records of an unusual size

Hi,
I got the following when trying to compile argus-3.0.7.3:
gcc -O3 -I. -I/usr/local/include -I./../include -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -c
ArgusSource.c
In file included from ./ArgusModeler.h:330,
from ./argus.h:40,
from ArgusSource.c:67:
./ArgusSource.h:893: error: ‘ArgusIpNetPacket’ undeclared here (not in a
function)
make: *** [ArgusSource.o] Error 1
Following this I found:
#ifdef DLT_IPNET
{ ArgusIpNetPacket, DLT_IPNET, "ArgusIpNetPacket()" },
#endif
Since this seem to be geared towards Mavericks and not my platform I took a
chance and commented this out:
/*
#ifdef DLT_IPNET
{ ArgusIpNetPacket, DLT_IPNET, "ArgusIpNetPacket()" },
#endif
*/
Which seems to have resolved my issue...Is this expected? Michael, did you
encounter this error?
Cheers,
Jesse
