I get Honeyd package from github and read instructions for installing it. I installed all dependencies, but when I try to ./configure, I get this error:

configure: error: "libevent is too old - you need to install a newer version.  Check http://www.monkey.org/~provos/libevent/"

I try in Kali linux and Fedora. Also I updated my libevent to final version from libevent website. But this error so remains.

Note: I could install Honeyd on Kali, but recently I uninstalled it. Now I cannot install it and I get this error.

  • If you carefully look at `./configure` output, it should tell you which check it performs before failing. This should shed some light about the version of `libevent` you need to have installed on the system. – Alessandro Dotti Contra Dec 24 '16 at 13:59

I tried ./configure --with-libevent (or ./configure --with-libevent=/usr) and this solved my problem.
