[syslog-ng] Compilation error

[Tamer Tayea]

I ran the following commands in sequence

>>rpm -ivh   libnet-1.0.2a-2.i386.rpm

>>>rpm -Uvh  libnet-1.1.2.1-3.i386.rpm  libnet-devel-1.1.2.1-3.i386.rpm

I didn`t get any errors from previous rpm commands..I am still getting
same error .. any ideas?

You're probably missing the libnet1 development libraries. On Ubuntu you
can install them with:
sudo apt-get install libnet1-dev

For other distros, check your repositories, they should have something
similar.
