BUG: Scapy 1.1.1_1 fails to run on MBPro C2D

[nathan.stocks@…]

(Note: I reported this bug to the scapy mailing list as well)

When trying to run the latest scapy with an up-to-date macports on my MacBook Pro C2D running OS X Tiger, scapy fails with:

$ scapy.py Traceback (most recent call last):

File "/opt/local/bin/scapy.py", line 11816, in ?

class Conf(ConfClass):

File "/opt/local/bin/scapy.py", line 11844, in Conf

iface = get_working_if()

File "/opt/local/bin/scapy.py", line 1051, in get_working_if

except pcap.pcapc.EXCEPTION:

AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'pcapc'

The error reports that the python pcap module doesn't contain a pcapc member, which I manually verified below. I'm using pylibpcap 0.5.1 and libpcap 0.9.5.

I updated macports by running 'sudo port -d selfupdate' twice.

I ran 'sudo port -v install scapy' and waited a very long time for all the dependencies to build. I got the error above when I tried to run scapy.

I then ran 'sudo port -v upgrade installed' and then 'sudo port -v uninstall scapy' and then 'sudo port -v install scapy'. It still fails with the same error.

I have Apple's X11 and the X11-sdk installed.

Here's my installed ports (why are some items listed multiple times???):

I've seen on the ML that this was due to not using sudo. The other bug mentioned was having to touch the startup file at first. I'm actually tracking "stable", so this is not going in until Phil Biondi tags a new release. Closing this, but thanks for the report!
