Tried latest version (18)... w/perl 5.16.3. Show quoted text
Host information ---------------- Hostname : Ishtar Aliases : Bliss ishtar Ishtar.sc.tlinx.org Pcap version : libpcap version 1.6.2 Devices information ------------------- Device eth0 (default) Description : No description available Undefined subroutine &main::pcap_close called at /usr/bin/pcapinfo line 55. ---- Looking in the module, I see no definition for pcap_close, though it was mentioned in the documentation... ??? First ran cpan-install as normal user, but noticed most tests say they need root -- so I tried it as root and the module failed to install (log follows): CPAN: CPAN::SQLite loaded ok (v0.204) Database was generated on Fri, 04 Nov 2016 23:56:39 GMT CPAN: Module::CoreList loaded ok (v5.20150520) Running test for module 'Net::Pcap' CPAN: Digest::SHA loaded ok (v5.95) CPAN: Compress::Zlib loaded ok (v2.068) Checksum for /Share/CPAN/sources/authors/id/S/SA/SAPER/Net-Pcap-0.18.tar.gz ok CPAN: File::Temp loaded ok (v0.2304) CPAN: YAML::XS loaded ok (v0.59) CPAN: CPAN::Meta::Requirements loaded ok (v2.133) CPAN: Parse::CPAN::Meta loaded ok (v2.150010) CPAN: CPAN::Meta loaded ok (v2.150010) Configuring S/SA/SAPER/Net-Pcap-0.18.tar.gz with Makefile.PL CPAN: CPAN::Reporter loaded ok (v1.2014) looking for -lpcap... yes checking for pcap_lib_version() in -lpcap... yes detecting available functions... ok Checking if your kit is complete...
