Unable to build tcpdump 4.0.0 [Debian 2.6.26-2 - libpcap 1.0.0]

[Javier Gálvez Guerrero <javier.galvez.guerrero () gmail com>]

Hi,

I'm using Debian Lenny (kernel 2.6.26-2) and I had libpcap 0.9.8 and tcpdump
3.9.8 installed but I would like to upgrade them to libpcap 1.0.0 and
tcpdump 4.0.0. In order to do that, I downloaded the corresponding tarballs.
I (believe that) properly installed libpcap 1.0.0 in my system (how could I
check this out before installing tcpdump?) but, when issuing ./configure in
the tcpdump 4.0.0 directory I get:

I tried removing previous libpcap0.8 and tcpdump packages through aptitude
but I don't get any different results. I don't really know what is happening
here.


Could anyone help me to get tcpdump 4.0.0 with libpcap 1.0.0 working,
please? Probably it's a simple issue but I'm not such an experienced Linux
user. Any help would be much appreciated.


Thank you so much and sorry for the inconvenience,
Javi
