["Li Haijiang" <lhjiang@xxxxxx>]

thanks you reply.but i have tried doing "make distclean", re-running the configure
script then  running the command of "./configure 2>&1 | tee /tmp/config.out".Now i
found the error is the same as before.
It is:
-----------
gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.  -I. -I./wiretap -I/usr/local/include  -DINET6
-D_U_="__attribute__(

and I have sended the config.out to you.
