Description (last modified by jmpp@…) (diff)
When one tries to install ettercap-ng by "sudo port install ettercap-ng" the compilation fails with a message:
---> Building ettercap-ng with target all Error: Target org.macports.build returned: shell command " cd "/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_net_ettercap-ng/work/ettercap-NG-0.7.3" && make all " returned error 2 Command output: wdg.c:821: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type wdg.c:821: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type wdg.c:823: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type wdg.c:824: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type wdg.c:826: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type wdg.c:826: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type wdg.c: In function 'wdg_get_ncols': wdg.c:837: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type wdg.c:838: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type wdg.c:840: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type wdg.c:840: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type wdg.c:842: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type wdg.c:843: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type wdg.c:845: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type wdg.c:845: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type wdg.c: In function 'wdg_get_begin_x': wdg.c:855: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type wdg.c:856: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type wdg.c:858: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type wdg.c:858: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type wdg.c: In function 'wdg_get_begin_y': wdg.c:865: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type wdg.c:866: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type wdg.c:868: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type wdg.c:868: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type make[4]: *** [libwdg_a-wdg.o] Error 1 make[3]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
Commentary:
Upon brief analysis of this code, I think the reason why this is happening is because a "typedef unsigned char u_char" got removed somewhere. Here are the patches to fix it:

Since this is my first bug report, I'm sorry if I breached some mysterious protocol that I don't know about or I botched up the diff files since it's my first time.
