What's wrong with tcpdump(8)? Other than that building either the real or the -lite version with "WITHOUT_X11" defined will get you the cli-version. "-lite" seems to just disable a couple of dissectors that have a lot of external dependencies.

I like the tshark-lite port myself to get the protocol decoders in CLI (text) mode...
