[Discussion] Suricata with PF_RING 4.7

[Will Metcalf]

PF_RING 4.7 added the requirement to call pfring_enable_ring(), which
was not previously required nor in the 1.0.4 code base.  So you have
two options, either use an older version of PF_RING a newer version of
suricata.  You can get the latest version of the code by issuing the
following command.

git clone git://phalanx.openinfosecfoundation.org/oisf.git

Regards,

Will
