Wireshark · Ethereal-dev: [Ethereal-dev] regenerate `configure' using a newer version of autoconf

[Ayamura KIKUCHI <ayamura@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Configure scripts in ethereal-0.9.5 fail due to errors on at leaset
IRIX 6.5 and Solaris 9.

Scripts should be regenerated using a newer version of autoconf such
as autoconf-2.53 to run those successfully.

(A header file "/usr/local/include/net/bpf.h" exists.)

libpcap from source, did you also do "make install-incl"?
