hping binary "without tcl scripting support" problem

[NotExcessive]

I've installed hping and gotten this message when I try to run it.

Editing make.conf to set the tcl USE flag, I've downloaded the source and unpacked it, but after running "configure" and make, the compile crashes after a short while.

Can anyone suggest a solution that will enable hping to run?

Start to learn how portage works?
!!!at your own risk! you will break your system if you dunno how to use portage!!!

Code: Select all

emerge --sync && USE="tcl" emerge -av net-analyzer/hping

OR file a bug and request it to be repackaged.

If I use emerge, the system doesn't recognise the package:

emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy "net-analyzer/hping".


but equo does.

^There are certainly ebuilds for hping in Portage:

emerge --sync
