undefined symbol: LibVersion error

[David Holder <david.holder () gmail com>]

Hi all,

I installed Snort yesterday and configured it based on the guide provided on
the ubuntu forums : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=919472

I'm running ubuntu 9.10 server edition and the latest version of Snort and
BASE.

I've managed to configure the database, permissions, snort.conf but when I
try and launch snort like so:

snort -c /etc/snort/snort.conf

I get the following:

root@snort:~# snort -c /etc/snort/snort.conf
Running in IDS mode

Does anyone have any idea how I can resolve this issue?

Thanks,

David
