honeyd compile error 1.0 and 0.8b

[Ivan Rivera <esteban_uria () yahoo com>]

Hi
I try to compile different version of honeyd (1.0 and
0.8b). I compile and install the following software

libdnet 1.10 (OK)
libevent 1.0c (OK)
libpcap 0.8.3 (OK)

I run ldconfig in the directory of libdnet and when I
try to compile honeyd i get the following error
message.

checking for working addr_cmp in libdnet... configure:
error: you need to install a more recent version of
libdnet

I specify the --with-libdnet=/usr/local but i get the
same error message.

I check documentation but all the documentation do not
say anything about this error, I think is a commond
error message, and i apply all the steps that i found
in the internet to fix this problem but I do not get
the right compile

Why I need to install another version more recent that
i have in my computer? I use 1.10 

Do you have any idea?

Thanks for you help

Ivan
