Re: daq-2.2 with snort-2?

If you need both on a system you probably shouldn’t use the default build path.

Specify the output location using the ‘--prefix’ when running configure. Then point to the daq installation directory when building snort.



See below.. taken from the configure script (configure -h)

"By default, `make install' will install all the files in
`/usr/local/bin', `/usr/local/lib' etc.  You can specify
an installation prefix other than `/usr/local' using `--prefix',
for instance `--prefix=$HOME’."

Maybe you could tweak the installation, so they could co-exist.
But why would you want both on the same system?

because I'm packaging daq-2.0 for Fedora/EPEL:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1394502
daq-2.0 and daq-2.2 cannot coexists in the default paths without renaming all libraries(a,so) and headers.

This is not the official repo for daq. Look at the snort homepage for
official daq releases.
