Same error on both my RHEL5 servers using 2.6.1.5.
I wonder if this is an issue:
rpm -qa | grep libpcap
libpcap-0.9.4-8.1
libpcap-devel-0.9.4-8.1
libpcap-0.9.4-8.1
It shows two libpcaps installed and it won't let me remove any of them.

Just tried with snort 2.6.1.5 on RHEL 5 yum'd to date with no RPMforge
repo's installed and it is working. Try the new version and see if that
helps.

Verify on libpcap-devel comes back blank. Tried removing it and
readding, still same issue.

I was just emailing back and forth with another person who has/had
this same problem.
Is libpcap-devel installed on your system? If it is please get a
listing of files in the rpm db and verify the integrity of the
package. If not intact, please remove and then re-install the -devel
package and see if that works.
Verify Files:
rpm -V libpcap-devel
Cheers,
Harry
Any ideas on this guys? I'm still unable to get it to work, SELinux
disabled. I'm thinking about downgrading to RHEL4 but I may run
into hardware issues.

If you believe it's SELINUX you can check the logs:
audit2allow -i /var/log/messages
or temporarily disable selinux
setenforce 0
HTH,

I actually just had the same issue yesterday with CentOS5. I was
using Patrick's directions and had to do a couple of things a
little
different like SELinux comes after the reboot. I have tried
everything that I could think of and still get the same error
that
Dan is getting.
I took the box back to 4.4 and no issues ... except fort
importing
the GPG key for NTOP but that is unrelated.

Yea this is very confusing. This is a brand new installation of
RHEL5 with the latest updates from RHN via yum.

I have the same setup in my lab and it worked for me. I have not
gotten a copy of the real RHEL 5 yet though, I am running on
CentOS
5. That should not make a difference though

Hello,
I'm trying to install Snort 2.6.1.4 from source on a RHEL5
server.
I get the following error:
ERROR! Libpcap library/headers not found
I currently have libpcap installed by RPM:
rpm -qa |grep libpcap
libpcap-0.9.4-8.1
libpcap-devel-0.9.4-8.1
Here's a list of the libpcap files:
/usr/include/pcap-bpf.h
/usr/include/pcap-namedb.h
/usr/include/pcap.h
/usr/lib/libpcap.a
/usr/lib/libpcap.so
/usr/lib/libpcap.so.0
/usr/lib/libpcap.so.0.9
/usr/lib/libpcap.so.0.9.4
I've tried running ./configure with '--with-libpcap-
includes=/usr/include --with-libpcap-libraries=/usr/lib' and
still
expierence the error. Any help on this would be greatly
appreciated.
Thank you.
