- Not a bug in ngrep. Upgrade to the latest libpcap:
+ Technically, not a bug in ngrep. A particular API call in
+ libpcap segfaults on certain operating systems (FreeBSD is
+ one). Newer versions of libpcap obviate the need to use that
+ particular API. You can get it at:
http://www.tcpdump.org/release/libpcap-0.6.2.tar.gz
+ For the time being, a configure switch '--without-restart' is
+ provided to turn off the API call. If your copy of ngrep
+ segfaults after displaying the interface info, try recompiling
+ with this switch. +
