FYI: RHEL7 (7.2) ships with libpcap 1.5.3-8 and I’m told the latest RHEL7 (7.5) ships with 1.5.3-11.

If I remember correctly the discussion was regarding some arkaic version (0.9.x) used on SuSE 11. For which we did some changes in autotools. Not sure if we do for cmake. Just thought we could request something with the same time line in the distributions as the other restrictions we impose like glib 2.32.

I don't hink we discussed something specific for libpcap, as it may have been overshadowed by our npcap discussions of late.

 

I have no objections to increase the version. Going to 1.8.1 would require some modifications or installations on nearly all Linux versions, My Mint 18.3 still comes with 1.7.4 for instance.

 

What is the current version anyway?

 

regards

Roland

Hi,

Do we request a min version of libpcap in 3.0? I think this was discussed but could not find the email(s)( quickly.

Regards

Anders
