'ImportError: No module named dumbnet' when trying to run a script that leverages scapy on OS X

Question

So, I am trying to learn about the scapy library in Python and trying to run a script that uses scapy. The script imports the module with: `from scapy.all import *` I saw this and of course installed scapy with: `pip install scapy` Next, I got the following import error: `ImportError: No module named pcapy` So, then I decided to install pcapy with `pip install pcapy`. It installed fine but now I am getting the import error of: `ImportError: No module named dumbnet` I can't find a module called dumbnet. Anybody know whats going on here? This is the first time I am messing around scapy and am using a Mac with Python 2.7 install in an activated virtual environment. Edit1: Here is the full error: ``` Traceback (most recent call last): File "syn_test.py", line 4, in from scapy.all import * # The One and Only Scapy File "/Users/dasComputer/venv_mac/lib/python2.7/site-packages/scapy/all.py", line 16, in from scapy.arch import * File "/Users/dasComputer/venv_mac/lib/python2.…

Accepted Answer

dumbnet is also known as libdnet. Source can be found at https://github.com/dugsong/libdnet. You can run the following commands in Terminal and scapy should work.

```
cd
git clone https://github.com/dugsong/libdnet.git
cd libdnet
./configure && make
cd python
python setup.py install
```
