Hey everyone, I was using my linux/backtrack laptop earlier in gtk mode, and i noticed an extra tab (PLUGINS) I wanted to know if there was any way to get the extra plugins for ettercap on my n810 running diablo. I checked out the ettercap website and it says I need libltdl to enable plugins. I've only found libltdl3 and libltdl3-dev for maemo but neither work.

http://ettercap.sourceforge.net/

Thanks

Use ettercap in debian chroot.

The debian version of ettercap seems to have 28 plugins inside.

Thanks, i'll try that.

Any other suggestions?

thanks

Nope thats it. But has anyone gotten ssl working?

i got my 28 plugins but the ssl is not working...not a bid deal tho!

Wow I remember this thread from back when I had my n800. Has there been another way to get the plugins without debian chroot?

Thanks

I did it without debian chroot. You seriously have to lie your *** off to dpkg. Google ettercap debian armel. Download the deb. dpkg --force-all -i ettercap_blah.deb. Write down it's dependencies. Go download those. Write down their dependencies. Eventually you will have installed about twelve debs with --force-all. I didn't upgrade any osso libs doing this, just downloaded stuff I didn't already have. Then I went into /var/lib/dpkg/status and erased the dependency line from each package I installed, and finally did an apt-get update.
Dpkg is there for somebody else's protection. I have been recklessly breaking it's dependencies on two gens of tablets now and never had it cause any noticable problems.

eh.. reading back over it, maybe that doesn't make any sense.
You have to download each .deb individually from debian's archives.
Then you install each one with dpkg --force-all -i pkgname.deb
After this, open /var/lib/dpkg/status. Search for the sections concerning the packages you installed. Erase the line that starts with Dependencies: from each section. Save the file. Do an apt-get update. Remember it's your own damn fault if something explodes, you broke all the rules.

Wow thanks, I'll work on that tonight. I have one newbie question though: if you have a .deb file made for Debian, can you install it on maemo and it will work? Or does it have to be a ported .deb file like the ones in the repositories?

Thanks

You need to get the armel version, as in:

http://packages.debian.org/unstable/net/ettercap :

Architecture Package Size Installed Size Files
alpha 261.7 kB 576 kB [list of files]
amd64 201.5 kB 448 kB [list of files]
armel 180.5 kB 392 kB [list of files]
............................
click the armel link, select your mirror, download.
Have fun!

Haha, Thanks! that's gonna save me a lot of trouble.
