when I do , the results were
| Code: | checking for pcap_datalink in -lpcap... yes
checking libnet.h usability... no
checking libnet.h presence... no
checking for libnet.h... no
ERROR! Libnet header not found, go get it from
http://www.packetfactory.net/projects/libnet/
or use the --with-libnet-* options, if you have it installed
in unusual place
make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.
!!! ERROR: net-analyzer/snort-2.0.0 failed.
!!! Function src_compile, Line 69, Exitcode 2

| I believe gentoo changed the libnet 1.0.2 file name, and snort is not compatible with libnet 1.1 yet. How to get around this? |

I installed libnet from portage..
checking for mysql... yes
checking for compress in -lz... yes
checking libnet.h usability... yes
checking libnet.h presence... yes
checking for libnet.h... yes
checking for libnet version 1.0.2a... no
ERROR! Snort with --enable-flexresp will *only* work with
libnet version 1.0.2a, go get it from
http://www.packetfactory.net/projects/libnet/
**********************************************
ERROR: unable to find libnet 1.0.2a (libnet.h)
checked in the following places
/usr/include

jezebel root # emerge -p libnet
These are the packages that I would merge, in order:
Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild R ] net-libs/libnet-1.1.0-r3
jezebel root #

The URL spat out says this:
Deprecated Tree (unsupported)
Latest Version: 1.0.2a
The SecurityFocus article on libnet 1.0.x written by Mike Schiffman.
All of the libnet code may be found here.

So, the version in portage is the latest & greatest, and the version that Snort is looking for (1.0.2a) is deprecated & unsupported. Whoops. |

I got around my libnet problem by installing snort-2.0.2 with | Code: | | ACCEPT_KEYWORDS='~x86' emerge -v snort |
