Problem while installing.

[Brecht Vermeulen]

Hi,

If you only want the userlevel version, the kernel patch may not be
needed of course, I wonder why it tries to compile the linux kernel
module then, the people of the Click project will correct me :-).

Out of the install file :

The user-level version of Click should compile and run on any Intel x86
Unix system that has the pcap library. (The pcap library is necessary to
communicate with the network. See the end of this document for
portability
notes for other architectures.) The Linux kernel module requires a
patched
Linux 2.2 system; we've tested on the recent 2.2.16, 2.2.17, and 2.2.18
Linux kernels.


best regards,
Brecht
