I'm trying to compile 2.0.4 using: ./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --enable-dynamic-linking and right away, it fails telling me that libnet-config isn't found. Which is correct, I don't have it installed. There wasn't anything in the tarball that told me I needed to. A 'grep -ri libnet *' shows a bunch of check in the configure and this ChangeLog entry: ChangeLog: * configure.in: added --with-libnet and --enable-spoof-source Is there a reason this dependency isn't documented inside the tarball, or am I missing some file/reference somewhere? Moving on, I went and downloaded the latest libnet, only to find out that the latest doesn't include libnet-config (it's deprecated). So now I have to downgrade my libnet. Moving on again, the compile fails: if gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -I/usr/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/lib/glib-2.0/include -I/usr/include/eventlog -D_BSD_SOURCE -D__BSD_SOURCE -D__FAVOR_BSD -DHAVE_NET_ETHERNET_H -DLIBNET_LIL_ENDIAN -D_GNU_SOURCE -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -O3 -march=k8 -mmmx -msse -msse2 -m3dnow -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer -Wall -g -MT cfg-grammar.o -MD -MP -MF ".deps/cfg-grammar.Tpo" \ -c -o cfg-grammar.o `test -f 'cfg-grammar.c' || echo './'`cfg-grammar.c; \ then mv -f ".deps/cfg-grammar.Tpo" ".deps/cfg-grammar.Po"; \ else rm -f ".deps/cfg-grammar.Tpo"; exit 1; \ fi In file included from /home/bazsi/zwa/git//syslog-ng/syslog-ng--mainline--2.0/src/cfg-grammar.y:15: afinet.h:61: error: syntax error before 'libnet_t' afinet.h:61: warning: no semicolon at end of struct or union afinet.h:63: warning: type defaults to 'int' in declaration of 'AFInetDestDriver' afinet.h:63: warning: data definition has no type or storage class /home/bazsi/zwa/git//syslog-ng/syslog-ng--mainline--2.0/src/cfg-grammar.y: In function 'yyparse': /home/bazsi/zwa/git//syslog-ng/syslog-ng--mainline--2.0/src/cfg-grammar.y:590: error: syntax error before ')' token /home/bazsi/zwa/git//syslog-ng/syslog-ng--mainline--2.0/src/cfg-grammar.y:623: error: syntax error before ')' token make[2]: *** [cfg-grammar.o] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/doug/syslog-ng-2.0.4/src' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/doug/syslog-ng-2.0.4' make: *** [all] Error 2 And there I'm stuck. On a whim, I 'upgrade' my libnet and it suddenly compiles w/o issue.. I think the libnet dependency needs to be re-examined -- Douglas J Hunley (doug at hunley.homeip.net) - Linux User #174778 http://doug.hunley.homeip.net I think, therefore, I am ... not related to you.
