Lose the README symlink, it was a bad idea of mine to add it in the first place as it made the packaging problem space bigger, not smaller. Remove two CI badges at the top of README.md. One badge was stale anyway, and the other does not represent the current CI configuration, which is bigger, changes frequently and fits the web-site much better. Remove the reference to ITA, it has been down for quite a while, it looks like it won't re-emerge this time. Merge PLATFORMS into README.md.

If you have not built libpcap, and your system does not have libpcap
|
|
installed, install libpcap first. Your system might provide a version
|
|
of libpcap that can be installed; if so, to compile tcpdump you might
|
|
need to install a "developer" version of libpcap as well as the
|
|
"run-time" version. You can also install tcpdump.org's version of
|
|
libpcap; see the README.md file in this directory for the location.
|
|
|
|
You will need an ANSI C compiler to build tcpdump. The configure script
|
|
will abort if your compiler is not ANSI compliant. If this happens, use
|
|
the generally available GNU C compiler (GCC).
|
|
|
|
After libpcap has been built (either install it with "make install" or
|
|
make sure both the libpcap and tcpdump source trees are in the same
|
|
directory), run ./configure (a shell script). "configure" will
|
|
determine your system attributes and generate an appropriate Makefile
|
|
from Makefile.in. Now build tcpdump by running "make".
|
|
|
|
If everything builds ok, su and type "make install". This will install
|
|
tcpdump and the manual entry. Any user will be able to use tcpdump to
|
|
read saved captures. Whether a user will be able to capture traffic
|
|
depends on the OS and the configuration of the system; see the tcpdump
|
|
man page for details. DO NOT give untrusted users the ability to
|
|
capture traffic. If a user can capture traffic, he or she could use
|
|
utilities such as tcpdump to capture any traffic on your net, including
|
|
passwords.
|
|
|
|
Note that most systems ship tcpdump, but usually an older version.
|
|
Remember to remove or rename the installed binary when upgrading.
|
|
|
|
If your system is not one which we have tested tcpdump on, you may have
|
|
to modify the configure script and Makefile.in. Please send us patches
|
|
for any modifications you need to make.
|
|
|
|
Please see "README.md" for notes about tested platforms.
