Error Building Pyrit On CentOS: cpyrit/_cpyrit_cpu.c:26:18: error: pcap.h: No such file or directory
Posted by alex in Errors at 5:15 PMWhen building pyrit, which is an application that uses GPU power to run dictionary attacks against WPA handshake captures, on CentOS Linux I ran into an error. The error was related to the pcap.h library which was not found by the pyrit setup.py python script. Resolving the problem is easy by simply installing the libpcap-devel RPM package using the yum package manager. Below I display more output surrounding the error, the log showing the libpcap-devel package installation, and finally the successful build of pyrit on CentOS Linux.

Based on the above error you can see the initial error is based on the fact that pcap.h is not found on the server and is required by the pyrit setup.py script. Using the “yum whatprovides” command you can see that libpcap-devel provides the pcap.h library file needed for pyrit to build properly. You can install libpcap-devel easily using yum which is displayed below.
Install libpcap-devel Using Yum To Provide The pcap.h Library:
[root@dev pyrit]# yum install libpcap-devel Loaded plugins: fastestmirror Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile * addons: hpc.arc.georgetown.edu * base: mirror.cisp.com * epel: ftp.osuosl.org * extras: mirror.sanctuaryhost.com * updates: mirror.sanctuaryhost.com Setting up Install Process Resolving Dependencies --> Running transaction check ---> Package libpcap-devel.i386 14:0.9.4-14.el5 set to be updated --> Processing Dependency: libpcap.so.0.9.4 for package: libpcap-devel ---> Package libpcap-devel.x86_64 14:0.9.4-14.el5 set to be updated --> Running transaction check ---> Package libpcap.i386 14:0.9.4-14.el5 set to be updated --> Finished Dependency Resolution Dependencies Resolved ==================================================================================================================================== Package Arch Version Repository Size ==================================================================================================================================== Installing: libpcap-devel i386 14:0.9.4-14.el5 base 118 k libpcap-devel x86_64 14:0.9.4-14.el5 base 117 k Installing for dependencies: libpcap i386 14:0.9.4-14.el5 base 107 k Transaction Summary ==================================================================================================================================== Install 3 Package(s) Update 0 Package(s) Remove 0 Package(s) Total download size: 342 k Is this ok [y/N]: y Downloading Packages: (1/3): libpcap-0.9.4-14.el5.i386.rpm | 107 kB 00:00 (2/3): libpcap-devel-0.9.4-14.el5.x86_64.rpm | 117 kB 00:00 (3/3): libpcap-devel-0.9.4-14.el5.i386.rpm | 118 kB 00:00 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Total 501 kB/s | 342 kB 00:00 Running rpm_check_debug Running Transaction Test Finished Transaction Test Transaction Test Succeeded Running Transaction Installing : libpcap 1/3 Installing : libpcap-devel 2/3 Installing : libpcap-devel 3/3 Installed: libpcap-devel.i386 14:0.9.4-14.el5 libpcap-devel.x86_64 14:0.9.4-14.el5 Dependency Installed: libpcap.i386 14:0.9.4-14.el5 Complete!
After install libpcap-devel you can see that pyrit builds without issue.
Build Pyrit On 64-Bit CentOS Linux:
[root@dev pyrit]# python2.6 setup.py build running build running build_py running build_ext building 'cpyrit._cpyrit_cpu' extension gcc -pthread -fno-strict-aliasing -DNDEBUG -O2 -g -pipe -Wall -Wp,-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -fexceptions -fstack-protector --param=ssp-buffer-size=4 -m64 -mtune=generic -D_GNU_SOURCE -fPIC -fPIC -I/usr/include/python2.6 -c cpyrit/_cpyrit_cpu.c -o build/temp.linux-x86_64-2.6/cpyrit/_cpyrit_cpu.o -DVERSION="0.3.1-dev (svn r234)" gcc -pthread -fno-strict-aliasing -DNDEBUG -O2 -g -pipe -Wall -Wp,-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -fexceptions -fstack-protector --param=ssp-buffer-size=4 -m64 -mtune=generic -D_GNU_SOURCE -fPIC -fPIC -I/usr/include/python2.6 -c cpyrit/_cpyrit_cpu_sse2.S -o build/temp.linux-x86_64-2.6/cpyrit/_cpyrit_cpu_sse2.o -DVERSION="0.3.1-dev (svn r234)" gcc -pthread -shared build/temp.linux-x86_64-2.6/cpyrit/_cpyrit_cpu.o build/temp.linux-x86_64-2.6/cpyrit/_cpyrit_cpu_sse2.o -L/usr/lib64 -lssl -lpcap -lpython2.6 -o build/lib.linux-x86_64-2.6/cpyrit/_cpyrit_cpu.so running build_scripts creating build/scripts-2.6 copying and adjusting pyrit -> build/scripts-2.6 changing mode of build/scripts-2.6/pyrit from 644 to 755
So to libpcap-devel is the package that provides pcap.h on CentOS Linux.

Hello heyu,
It would appear that you have some other packages missing which is definitely not CentOS’s fault. If you read through the errors and install the necessary packages you should be able to move forward.
Thanks.
