New version available. Reproducible: Always I will attach an ebuild, modified from 3.0-r2. I've also modified two of the patch files to adjust line numbers, and the third patch file is no longer needed. Problem: this fails to compile with "fatal error: lj_obj.h: No such file or directory" This file exists in the third party folder of the source, but is not part of the installed luajit (2.04 or 2.05) but the Makefile points to /usr/include if luajit is installed. I'm not sure the right way to handle this.

I'm now trying to get 3.4 to compile, and am getting errors which appear related to nDPI, even if I upgrade that to 2.2 instead of 2.0. The gentoo patch needs revision for 3.4, since the Makefile part which deals with nDPI has changed quite a bit. However, using the patch to leave it all in or to remove it all (similar to 3.0 and 3.2) I still get the same later compile fails. I'm now trying to compile from git, but it seems to require libmaxminddb, which is in portage. I don't know if it wasn't neededd by 3.0 because it was added since then, and whether I haven't gotten any error about missing it only because I haven't gotten far enough in the build process.
I just tried again, and although I think I've got the nDPI patch set to not use it, the compile is failing to find ndpi_main.h. I think the unerlying problem is that the default ntopng build expects ndpi to have been built either within or parallel to it, not completely separately, so it never tries to look for the include files under /usr/include. I'm going to play with the patch to try to find it installed, but if anyone else has a better handle on how to do that, I'd appreciate any hints or pointers.
Sorry to be a pain - it seems there are several issues for me. With nDPI 2.2 installed, ntopng 3.4 without the ndpi patch does find it, but it actually needs nDPI 2.4, which is also not yet in the tree. However, nDPI 2.2 seems to be the last version to actually install it's headers and libraries. ntopng can handle nDPI installed into the system, but seems more to expect it to just be built within or parallel to the ntopng build dir, and can find everything there. So I see two approaches: 1) drop nDPI from the tree (I don't see any other consumers) and modify the ntopng ebuild to build both 2) modify the nDPI 2.4 ebuild so the libraries and headers do get installed. I'm trying to modify the Makefile(s) to do the latter, but I'm just getting lost - I think my makefile-fu just isn't good enough to follow how it works. Again - I'll keep working, but any pointers or suggestions would be appreciated.
Well, that was an adventure... Jack I also ran into lots of problems with ntopng and nDPI, ended up making about 5 discrete patches to nDPI 2.4-stable, followed by 2 to ntopng 3.6-stable, and now I have working ebuilds and patches for both. I've submitted PRs to upstream for most of the issues: https://github.com/ntop/nDPI/pull/618 https://github.com/ntop/nDPI/pull/622 https://github.com/ntop/nDPI/pull/624 https://github.com/ntop/ntopng/pull/2088 https://github.com/ntop/ntopng/pull/2089 ...A couple I couldn't decide what the "right" fix was so just made diffs that force the right thing when building on Gentoo. I'll attach what I'm currently using; if/when upstream merges any of those fixes, not all of them will be needed. FWIW the one error I never encountered was any luajit errors! I've got dev-lang/luajit-2.0.5-r1 installed.

I gave up on this in September, and never went back to try all the patches posted in October. However, ntop 3.8 is now out, as is nDPI 2.6, so I suppose I'll have to dig into this again.
Success (I think, at least mostly). I sort of merged my previous ebuild with yours, but used the tarball not git as the source. The mongoose patch is no longer necessary, but I needed two additional patches. First, use std:min instead of min in third-party/zeromq-4.1.3/src/tcp_connecter.cpp. I just made that patch myself. Second, src/NetworkInterface.cpp failed with a call to ndpi_fill_ip_protocol_category, missing an argument. I created a patch that used the version of that line in the git head of that source file. I was then able to complete all the ebuild steps to install/qmerge. It runs, but I have not gone through all the screens to see if it is fully funcional. Oddly, when I try to actually emerge the ebuild, it wants to install eight additional packages: dev-libs/hiredis, net-analyzer/rrdtool, and dev-python/pyzmq are DEPENDs, with the latter pulling in 5 other packages. ntopng fully compiles, installs, and runs without them - hopefully it is just missing some functionality I haven't tested or don't need, as opposed to pulling in unneeded packages. I will attach my ebuild and patches shortly.

Created attachment 580316 [details, diff] patch for min -> std::min
Created attachment 580318 [details, diff] patch to correct invalid call to ndpi function
I've updated to version 3.8. Please verify, as I've changed some parts
Compiles and runs fine. I haven't done much explicit testing, but the changes between the new ebuild and my local version don't show any differences to cause any problems. Thanks.
Great. Let me know if you'll find something anyway. Thanks for your support.
