Hi Yasser,

Thanks for the update.

There is still an error, and I notice it is because the .o file is not
created in the first step:


This in the new output:


$ gcc packetforwardrohc.c -o packetforwardrohc -I/usr/include -L/usr/lib
-lpcap `libnet-config --defines --cflags --libs` -lrohc_comp -lrohc_common
-lm

Any suggestions?

Thanks a lot,
