Hello

I want to use Interceptor Wifi for my Froggit Station .

I try to install librairy libpcap on my rpi2

I use all these but nok ;-(

sudo pip install pypcap
sudo apt-get install python-libpcap
sudo apt-get install libcap-dev

So i try to find another way :

wget http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/p/python-libpcap/python-libpcap_0.6.4-1_armhf.deb

And installation by dkpg :

dpkg -i python-libpcap_0.6.4-1_armhf.deb

Can someone tell me if my libpcap will work fine ?

Thansk a lot

Best regards

Stéphane

My own answer

i try several solutions and the last is good ;)

Architecture armhf

wget http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian/pool/main/p/python-pypcap/python-pypcap_1.1.2+debian-2.2_armhf.deb

dpkg -i python-pypcap_1.1.2+debian-2.2_armhf.deb

It's ok now ;)
