RE: installation problems

["M. Shirk" <shirkdog_linux () hotmail com>]

If you use packages, then you should just use packages.

If you compile one thing from source, you may get errors when trying to 
install packages later on.

I will assume you compiled libpcap-0.8.3 from source.
That Snort package is looking for that particular version of libpcap, 
therefore you would need the libpcap-0.6.2 package to be installed.

Check out the docs at http://www.snort.org most notably Patrick Harper's 
HOW-To Guides.
