Okay, finally getting around to testing this:
Copying the various 0.8.1 libpcap header files mentioned below into
/usr/local.include (it's not trying to include /usr/include for me for
some reason), I now get these errors:
ld: Undefined symbols:
_pcap_lib_version
_pcap_datalink_val_to_name
_pcap_findalldevs
_pcap_freealldevs
_pcap_list_datalinks
_pcap_set_datalink
_pcap_datalink_name_to_val
make[2]: *** [tethereal] Error 1
Any ideas why?
Thanks,
Ian

This security patch is included with 10.3.3 and the libpcap files

aren't included in the release.
Since this problem will likely effect any new and existing users
trying to
build on OS X 10.3.3 and this isn't likely to change in the near
future,
should something be added to the README.macosx and/or the FAQ?

Okay ... sorry to response to my own post, but the issue seems to be
that 0.10.2 assumes you have pcap_if_t if you have pcap_findalldevs, a
sane assumption from my reading of the libpcap-0.8.1 headers.
However,
OS X 10.3.2 ships with a weird version of libpcap that includes
pcap_findalldevs, but no definition for pcap_if_t.
No, 10.3.2 doesn't do that; it ships with an 0.6[.x]-derived libpcap
that
doesn't include "pcap_findalldevs()".
It's a problem with the latest Security Update - it updates the libpcap
dylib to 0.8.1, but doesn't update the header files (or the man page -
and
also doesn't update the tcpdump man page to 3.8.1).
Does anybody have a favorite workaround?
Install, in "/usr/include", pcap.h, pcap-bpf.h, and pcap-stdinc.h from
libpcap 0.8.1.
