libpcap.so.0.8: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

[BetterDefender]

The following problems occurred when running naabu on Centos 7 system. I tried to solve it but failed. I need technical support, thank you!

Error log：
./naabu: error while loading shared libraries: libpcap.so.0.8: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

me too,
./naabu: error while loading shared libraries: libpcap.so.0.8: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

@hkzck could you retry with latest version of naabu and share the output of naabu -hc?

Found out this old issue while troubleshooting the same problem.

Trying naabu -hc gave the same error.

I'm using Arch based Endeavour OS and do have libpcap installed, but the file naabu needs was not present:

$ find /usr/lib/ -name 'libpcap.so*'
/usr/lib/libpcap.so
/usr/lib/libpcap.so.1
/usr/lib/libpcap.so.1.10.3

Solution was to make symbolic link:

$ sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libpcap.so /usr/lib/libpcap.so.0.8

I hope this helps.
