Compiling tcpdump on NetBSD

NetBSD has two libpcap libraries: one that is always installed as a part of the OS and another that can be installed as a package from pkgsrc. Also the usual method of compiling with the upstream libpcap in ../libpcap is available.

GCC, Clang, Autoconf and CMake are presumed to work, if this is not the case, please report a bug as explained in the guidelines for contributing.

NetBSD 9.3

  • Upstream libpcap works.
  • OS libpcap works.
  • pkgsrc libpcap works.

NetBSD 9.2, 9.1 and 9.0

  • Upstream libpcap works.
  • OS libpcap cannot be used due to this bug.
