AW: Trouble building snort (any version) on glibc-l inux systems....

["Poppi, Sandro" <Sandro.Poppi () wacker com>]

Eli,

from your output I don't see any probs. Snort is compiled and installed:

make install:

> make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/src/snort/src'
> make[3]: Entering directory `/usr/src/snort/src'
> /bin/sh ../mkinstalldirs /usr/local/bin
>   /usr/bin/install -c  snort /usr/local/bin/snort

So the snort binary can be found in /usr/local/bin.

Don't care about the win32 stuff. It's included in the source distribution
but won't be touched on a linux system.

Sandro
