Re: tcpdump configure error with pcap_loop... no

Yes, I have compiled tcpdump with new path of the libpcap library without
any issue.

root@beagleboard:/mnt/tcpdump-4.5.1/build#
/mnt/tcpdump-4.5.1/build/binaries/sbin/tcpdump -h
tcpdump version 4.5.1
libpcap version 1.5.2


I think this issue was appeared because before to compile libpcap library I
have compiled several another packages already and may one of them has made
any changes in the my environment.

Hope it will not appear again.

You are absolutely right in it.
I have tried again to compile libpcap 1.5.2 in the new directory and it
was done with success.

root@beagleboard:/mnt/libpcap-1.5.2/build# file
/mnt/libpcap-1.5.2/build/binaries/lib/libpcap.so.1.5.2
/mnt/libpcap-1.5.2/build/binaries/lib/libpcap.so.1.5.2: ELF 32-bit LSB

...and you were able to link tcpdump with the resulting libpcap?

If so, there were probably one or more bad .o files in the directory when
you did the build, as your libpcap_configure file didn't show any
compilation being done, just linking into a .so file and archiving into a
.a file, and doing the "make distclean" cleaned that up.
