What version of libpcap do you have installed?
Hmmm ... Never thought of that.
Snort is linked against:
maus@debian3164m:~$ ldd /usr/local/bin/snort | grep pcap
libpcap.so.0.8 => /usr/lib/libpcap.so.0.8 (0x0000002a9577b000)
which is from the libpcap0.8 debian package:

Description: System interface for user-level packet capture
libpcap (Packet CAPture) provides a portable framework for low-level
network monitoring. Applications include network statistics collection,
security monitoring, network debugging, etc.
.
Since almost every system vendor provides a different interface for
packet capture, and since there are several tools that require this
functionality, we've created this system-independent API to ease in
porting and to alleviate the need for several system-dependent packet
capture modules in each application.
.
Further information is available at <URL: http://www.tcpdump.org/>
I will try a more current (0.9.5) version.
Andreas.
