Package: snort Version: 2.7.0-20.4 Severity: normal Snort package during installation can't detect proper interface. Reason is czech (generally foreign) environment. Shell script try to find word "UP" in ifconfig output, but this word is translated to other language! Therefore script function faild (check_interfaces() in snort.config).
Please, find some realiable way how to detect interface up and ready (maybe ip command)? -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0.4 APT prefers proposed-updates APT policy: (500, 'proposed-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-2-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=cs_CZ.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=cs_CZ.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages snort depends on: ii adduser 3.110 add and remove users and groups ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.24 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 2.7-18lenny2 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libgcrypt11 1.4.1-1 LGPL Crypto library - runtime libr ii libgnutls26 2.4.2-6+lenny2 the GNU TLS library - runtime libr ii libgpg-error0 1.4-2 library for common error values an ii libltdl3 1.5.26-4+lenny1 A system independent dlopen wrappe ii libpcap0.8 1.0.0-4 system interface for user-level pa ii libpcre3 7.8-2+b1 Perl 5 Compatible Regular Expressi ii libprelude2 0.9.18.1-1 Hybrid Intrusion Detection System ii libtasn1-3 1.4-1 Manage ASN.1 structures (runtime) ii logrotate 3.7.1-5 Log rotation utility ii rsyslog [system-log-da 3.18.6-4 enhanced multi-threaded syslogd ii snort-common 2.7.0-20.4 flexible Network Intrusion Detecti ii snort-common-libraries 2.7.0-20.4 flexible Network Intrusion Detecti ii snort-rules-default 2.7.0-20.4 flexible Network Intrusion Detecti ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.3.dfsg-12 compression library - runtime Versions of packages snort recommends: ii iproute 20080725-2 networking and traffic control too Versions of packages snort suggests: pn snort-doc <none> (no description available) -- debconf information: * snort/address_range: 192.168.0.0/16 snort/startup: boot snort/options: * snort/invalid_interface: * snort/interface: eth0 snort/stats_rcpt: root snort/send_stats: true snort/config_parameters: snort/config_error: snort/please_restart_manually: snort/reverse_order: false snort/stats_treshold: 1 snort/disable_promiscuous: false -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
