Actually it was supposed to work on i386, but now that it doesn't I should mark that as "BROKEN" on i386. > by the way pcap gives some errors on x86_64 but builds, but on i386 it > crashes the build. The pcap code is correct for both cases. I guess you've been in a hurry - on i386 likely you don't have libpcap-devel (or such) installed (you also need libpcap.a), on x86_64 those "errors" (since it builds) are warnings - even if it's a statically linked binary it can't run standalone, because it needs NSS which can't be statically linked (those libraries are loaded with dlopen()). Obviously, I don't know what happened actually because you don't tell it, I guessed the most likely causes. -- Inform me of my mistakes, so I can keep imitating Homer Simpson's "Doh!".
