I am trying to install tcptraceroute on my Ubuntu. I cannot use apt-get because there is a firewall issue. So I downloaded the package on my local and scp it over. When I run the ./configure command, it barks at me saying
checking for pcap_open_live in -lpcap... no
configure: error: cannot find libpcap
I downloaded the following into the tcptraceroute directory:
libpcap.so.1()(64bit)
How do install libpcap?
Please help.
Did you try to download the .deb-package manually? All Ubuntu packages are also available online for download, eg at http://packages.ubuntu.com/raring/tcptraceroute
You can then install the downloaded package simply by typing (as root)
The important thing is that you have to resolve dependencies manually too, and install them in order (eg first libpcap, then tcptraceroute)
If you rather use a GUI, you can also simply doubleclick the XYZ.deb-file in your filebrowser, that should start ubuntus package management software and install it for you
