FYI: RHEL7 (7.2) ships with libpcap 1.5.3-8 and I’m told the latest RHEL7
(7.5) ships with 1.5.3-11.

If I remember correctly the discussion was regarding some arkaic version
(0.9.x) used on SuSE 11. For which we did some changes in autotools. Not
sure if we do for cmake. Just thought we could request something with the
same time line in the distributions as the other restrictions we impose
like glib 2.32.

I don't hink we discussed something specific for libpcap, as it may have
been overshadowed by our npcap discussions of late.



I have no objections to increase the version. Going to 1.8.1 would require
some modifications or installations on nearly all Linux versions, My Mint
18.3 still comes with 1.7.4 for instance.



What is the current version anyway?



regards

Roland

Hi,

Do we request a min version of libpcap in 3.0? I think this was discussed
but could not find the email(s)( quickly.

Regards

Anders
