 The ESP tests are failing because you haven't got libssl-dev.

 Yes - some tests fail if the full set of support libraries weren't 
available when tcpdump was built.

 Perhaps we want to suppress some tests if we don't have the 
appropriate libraries - or have the tests compare against the results of a 
tcpdump built without the library or libraries in question rather than the 
results of one built with them.


 We could maybe add a text in INSTALL file, like:

 +To build with crypto support, you need SSL library (libssl-dev).
 +If you don't have this library, you will have some "make 
check" errors.

Denis appears to have fixed that with

    commit 9e2042ebe86c41d373930dbd89b56a6a2f06fcf0
    Author: Denis Ovsienko <infrastation () yandex ru>

        make OpenSSL-specific tests conditional

We could maybe add a text in INSTALL file, like:
