Pyrit0.4.0 running errors

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I got some trouble running pyrit0.4.0 on a Debian etch machine (can't upgrade 
for now) with Python2.6, and libpcap1.0.0.

As i understand, it's a libpcap issue but I can't find any help on googling 
"undefined symbol: pcap_datalink_val_to_name". I've seen some post without any 
answer for some of the other errors but those are GPU-related, I only want 
pyrit to run on CPU (Xeon @ 16 cores).

I can provide more information if needed.

I couldnt find information on that either and there is nothing Pyrit can do 
about it. Please ask the Debian guys either on a mailing list, their bug 
tracker or IRC. Libpcap 1.0 should provide this symbol.
