ntop on Kali Linux 2.0

I recently wanted ntop on my Kali Linux 2.0 vm so I naturally tried 'apt-get install ntop', and it's not there. A little searching and I found an older Kali Git repo of it here: http://git.kali.org/gitweb/?p=packages/ntop.git;a=summary. Did a "git clone" of that URL locally then went in there and ran autogen.sh. And it's still missing a few things, I did an apt-get install of the following packages:

  • automake
  • autoconf
  • libtool
  • libtool-bin
  • libgdbm-dev
Autogen.sh made it further then said it can't find RRD, so I downloaded the latest version from http://oss.oetiker.ch/rrdtool/pub/?M=D. Went in there and ran configure only to discover more things were missing. I added the package libglib2.0-dev to start with an re-ran configure.

Now it's complaining that libpng is missing and after a quick search it appears that package was removed from Kali a little while ago. No time to track down the Deb package and such so I'll come back to this later, it's not that important.
