tcpslice installation notes

If you have not built libpcap, do so first. See this file for the source code location.

You will need a C99 compiler to build tcpslice. The configure script will abort if your compiler is not C99 compliant. If this happens, use the generally available GNU C compiler (GCC) or Clang.

After libpcap has been built (either install it with make install or make sure both the libpcap and tcpslice source trees are in the same directory):

  • If you build from a git clone rather than from a release archive, run ./autogen.sh (a shell script). autogen.sh will build the configure and config.h.in files.

On some system, you may need to set the AUTORECONF variable, like: AUTORECONF=autoreconf-2.69 ./autogen.sh to select the autoreconf version you want to use.

  • Run ./configure (a shell script). configure will determine your system attributes and generate an appropriate Makefile from Makefile.in. Now build tcpslice by running make.

On OpenBSD, you may need to set, before the make, the AUTOCONF_VERSION variable like: AUTOCONF_VERSION=2.69 make

If everything builds OK, su and run make install. This will install tcpslice and the manual entry.

If your system is not one which we have tested tcpslice on, you may have to modify the configure.ac and Makefile.in files. Please send us patches for any modifications you need to make.
