Try version 1.12 under the releases tab. I guess the newer code changed. sudo ./configure ... --with-dnet-includes=/opt/libdnet/include --with-dnet-libraries=/opt/libdnet/lib ... checking dnet.h usability... yes checking dnet.h presence... yes checking for dnet.h... yes checking dumbnet.h usability... yes checking dumbnet.h presence... yes checking for dumbnet.h... yes YM ________________________________ From: James Lay <jlay () slave-tothe-box net> Sent: Tuesday, October 18, 2016 7:58:18 PM To: Snort Subject: [Snort-users] Long over due So this is probably long over due for me. I run into this every time I make a new snort box. At issue is libdnet and libdumbnet. Here's from my notes: 1. without libdnet installed from https://github.com/dugsong/libdnet, but with libdumbnet-dev installed via apt-get checking dnet.h usability... no checking dnet.h presence... no checking for dnet.h... no checking dumbnet.h usability... yes checking dumbnet.h presence... yes checking for dumbnet.h... yes checking for eth_set in -ldnet... no checking for eth_set in -ldumbnet... no ERROR! dnet library not found, go get it from http://code.google.com/p/libdnet/ or use the --with-dnet-* options, if you have it installed in an unusual place 2. with libdnet installed from https://github.com/dugsong/libdnet installed to /opt/libdnet, but without libdumbnet-dev installed via apt with the below passed via ./configure --with-dnet-includes=/opt/libdnet/include or --with-dnet-includes=/opt/libdnet/include/dnet /opt/libdnet/include/dnet.h exists as does /opt/libdnet/include/dnet/ checking dnet.h usability... no checking dnet.h presence... no checking for dnet.h... no checking dumbnet.h usability... no checking dumbnet.h presence... no checking for dumbnet.h... no ERROR! dnet header not found, go get it from http://code.google.com/p/libdnet/ or use the --with-dnet-* options, if you have it installed in an unusual place 3. Finally, success with libdumbnet-dev installed via apt, libdnet installed from https://github.com/dugsong/libdnet to /opt/libdnet and passing the exact some config options above checking dnet.h usability... no checking dnet.h presence... no checking for dnet.h... no checking dumbnet.h usability... yes checking dumbnet.h presence... yes checking for dumbnet.h... yes ... still reports not finding dnet.h, but if I remove my --with-dnet-includes=/opt/libdnet/include then I'm back to: checking dnet.h usability... no checking dnet.h presence... no checking for dnet.h... no checking dumbnet.h usability... yes checking dumbnet.h presence... yes checking for dumbnet.h... yes checking for eth_set in -ldnet... no checking for eth_set in -ldumbnet... no ERROR! dnet library not found, go get it from http://code.google.com/p/libdnet/ or use the --with-dnet-* options, if you have it installed in an unusual place So it really appears that either the config script is wonky and not reporting correctly, or there is something else going on. I've had this issue pretty much since I started using snort almost 10 years ago :) Thanks for looking.
