Hello,
i get the following error message when building the package tcpdump version 4.9.3 under OpenWRT version 18.06.5:
configure: error: This is a bug, please follow the guidelines in CONTRIBUTING and include the config.log file in your report. If you have downloaded libpcap from
tcpdump.org, and built it yourself, please also include the config.log
file from the libpcap source directory, the Makefile from the libpcap
source directory, and the output of the make process for libpcap, as
this could be a problem with the libpcap that was built, and we will
not be able to determine why this is happening, and thus will not be
able to fix it, without that information, as we have not been able to
reproduce this problem ourselves.

Hello, I don't want to give up tcpdump. Can you give me a hint on how to install the software? Create the building without tcpdump and install the package after that over the packet manager?
Great, a new stable version is coming out and the version 18.06 still has bugs. thank you for your help. really great the support here. that's it with openwrt!
Hi there,
after I made the following change under make menuconfig the build works again.
Under Advanced configuration Options / Toolchain Options / C Library implementation / Use msul)
Change from Use glibc to Use musl
