ARGUSBug Argus fails with symbol lookup error

[Carter Bullard]

Hey Greg,
Argus defines a pointer “space” in ./common/argus_filter.c.  on line 1178.
   nff_u_int32 *space;

and is used in the compiler optimizer for filtering argus records, on line 2871.  
Argus shouldn’t compile if there is a problem with the variable definition, as its defined, allocated, used and freed in the same .c, .o file.  

Is it possible that your argus is linking to a system installed argus_common.a, or a stale ./lib/argus_common.a library rather than statically linking to the one built by the source ???  Try

  % ldd /usr/local/sbin/argus. (Or its equivalent on your system)

To see what argus is linking to  ????
