You might have to run ldconfig on the directory in which libdnet has
been installed.

When I come to do the ./configure for honeyd I get the following message
'checking for working addr_cmp in libdnet... configure: error: you need to
install a more recent version of libdnet' I have tried honeyd-0.8b and get
the same message and I have tried ./configure --without-python all to no
avail. The configure.log has the line 'configure:6159: error: you need to
install a more recent version of libdnet' but looking at the configure
script I am none the wiser! After much googling and reading FAQ I see that
this has been seen before but I could not see how to implement the hack.

Can anyone tell me what is going wrong and how to put it right.
