Here's the changelog for the Jessie version.

http://sources.debian.net/src/pmacct/1.5.0-4/ChangeLog/

Looks like there's pf_ring support, but you might want
to check newer changlogs to see if any important bugs
were fixed or some such.

There are trade-offs.  If there's a new feature you need,
and you're willing to monitor the pmacct-announce mailing
list for security problems, then it makes sense to
compile your own.

On the other hand if what the distro releases works for you
why bother to go though extra work to get shiny new features you
don't need?

FYI.  There's usually no need to compile pmacct on Jessie.  You can 
install the regular debian package.

It's just that MySQL was the next test. Your compilation is likely to
fail as well after the succesful configure. -lnuma should be explicitely
tested but the code for that has been commented out. I suppose there is
a good reason for that.

So, it's unrelated to MySQL. -lnuma is added whatever you have PF_RING. Dunno 
if it makes sense or not.

Yes, don't know why it complained about MySQL client libraries. Configure also 
completed successfully without --enable-mysql. So it was somehow related to 
MySQL.

Hi,

It seems like the problem was that libnuma-dev was missing. I saw that when 
looking at the config.log file.
