#include pcap.h make fails for hcxtools












1















I'm running the latest version of Kali on a VirtualBox, and I cannot get hcxtools installed. More specifically, I can not figure out how to get the dependency pcap.h. Running make in /hcxtools responds:



root@Lead-Pencil-Tip:~/hcxtools# make
cc -O3 -Wall -Wextra -std=gnu99 -MMD -MF .deps/wlanhcx2cap.d -o wlanhcx2cap wlanhcx2cap.c -lpcap
wlanhcx2cap.c:12:10: fatal error: pcap.h: No such file or directory
#include <pcap.h>
^~~~~~~~
compilation terminated.
make: *** [Makefile:81: wlanhcx2cap] Error 1


I've installed:



libssl-dev
libcurl4-gnutls-dev
libcurl4-openssl-dev
libssl-dev
zlib1g-dev
libpcap-dev


The answers in issues 51 and 61 have not solved my problem.

You need to install libpcap0.8-dev, which provides /usr/include/pcap.h.



In future, you can find this out by installing apt-file and using that:



apt-file search /pcap.h


(The first time you install it, you’ll need to run sudo apt update.)

    @MarkDeven: To me it seems also an error of ./configure . This should detect and give better warning about required dependencies
