Hi,
The n_net of a struct netent was changed to an uint32_t, and 1st
argument of getnetbyaddr() was changed to an uint32_t, to conform to
POSIX-2001. These changes broke an ABI compatibility on 64 bit
architecture. With these changes, shlib major of libpcap was bumped.
You have to recompile userland programs that use getnetbyaddr(3),
getnetbyname(3), getnetent(3) and/or libpcap on 64 bit architecture.
Sincerely,
