- The error message is clear: you need to install the development files of libnl: (Ubuntu 14.04 uses libnl3)
Code: [Select]
sudo apt-get install libnl-3-dev libnl-genl-3-dev

Post by: johnyork on May 21, 2014, 01:24:06 pm: Okay Jano, I ran
sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) build-essential make patch subversion openssl libssl-dev zlib1g zlib1g-dev libssh2-1-dev libnl-3-dev libnl-genl-3-dev gettext autoconf sqlite3 libsqlite3-dev tcl8.5 libpcap0.8 libpcap0.8-dev python-scapy python-dev cracklib-runtime

and still got the message
common.mak:85: *** Cannot find development files for any supported version of libnl. install either libnl1 or libnl3.. Stop.

Also, could you give me more info about running
make sqlite=true unstable=true libnl=true && sudo make sqlite=true unstable=true libnl=true install
Do I need to be in a specific directory or do I need to specify a target?

- I think you're doing something wrong because in one of my machines I have Ubuntu 14.04 64bit and I don't have this problem.

- Try to uninstall your version of Aircrack-ng and then check the SVN version:
(use your account and not the root user)
Code: [Select]
cd ~/;svn co -r 2390 http://svn.aircrack-ng.org/trunk/ aircrack-ng;cd aircrack-ng;make check && sudo make uninstall && sudo make clean
- If all the tests are positive then continue the installation:
Code: [Select]
cd ~/aircrack-ng;make sqlite=true unstable=true libnl=true && sudo make sqlite=true unstable=true libnl=true install && sudo airodump-ng-oui-update
Bye Jano
