It's my code to look for SSL. I may not have explained the purpose
particularly well. Doco never has been my strong point.
The patch to the configure process should apply cleanly to the 0.8.15
source, so I'll include it here.
--with-ssl=/path/to/ssl
(ie the dir containing include/ssl and lib/libcrypto.a) is what you need
The problem is that the test for ucd-snmp in the Ethereal ./configure won't
work if ucd-snmp was built with SSL or OpenSSL, but still leaves traces of
"I found ucd-snmp" in the Makefile.
Without my patch you either have to -disable-snmp or somehow add
"-I/path/to/ssl/includes/" to CFLAGS and "-L/path/to/ssl/lib -lcrypto" to
LDFLAGS
BUT.
The line "lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 Feb 10 07:49 /usr/lib/libsnmp.so.0.4.2
->libsnmp-0.4.2.so" looks strange.
Is this a symlink pointing to itself? If it is you might have to uninstall
ucd-snmp, clean up the dangling symlinks, and reinstall.

Andrew Hood

It looks as if this version of SNMP requires a crypto library of some
sort. If it's an SSL library, then the next version of Ethereal will
either automatically look for the SSL library or will require you to
configure with "-with-ssl" on platforms where the SNMP library was built
to require the SSL library. (I didn't write the SSL checking stuff, and
I don't remember which of those the person who did write it said it
does.)
For now, you will probably have to re-run configure with
--disable-snmp
and then rebuild. This will cause Ethereal to dissect SNMP but will
cause it *NOT* to attempt to use the UCD SNMP library to more
symbolically dissect SNMP packets.
