Description Lonnie Abelbeck 2014-09-08 18:49:41 UTC 
For the ngrep package, with the following change:
--
-	--with-pcap-includes=$(STAGING_DIR)/usr/include \
+	--with-pcap-includes=$(STAGING_DIR)/usr/include/pcap \
--

The bpf.h include file is now properly found, such that the following are defined in config.h:
--
#define HAVE_DLT_RAW 1
#define HAVE_DLT_LOOP 1
#define HAVE_DLT_LINUX_SLL 1
#define HAVE_DLT_IEEE802_11 1
#define HAVE_DLT_IEEE802_11_RADIO 1
--

One benefit is that "ngrep -d any" now works since HAVE_DLT_LINUX_SLL is defined.
