I built netsniff-ng 0.5.8-rc2 from git just last night on a 64bit Ubuntu 
12.04.2 LTS box.

When I specify a time-based interval, netsniff-ng records for the full 
interval but then crashes with a "Poll failed!" error before starting a 2nd 
pcap file.  Like this:

root@server:~# netsniff-ng --in eth1 --out dump -s --interval 30s
Running! Hang up with ^C!

Poll failed!
root@server:~# ll dump
total 152064
drwxr-xr-x  2 root root      4096 Aug 16 10:27 ./
drwx------ 57 root root     12288 Aug 16 10:26 ../
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 155690405 Aug 16 10:27 dump-1376663235.pcap

This does not occur with a traffic volume interval like "--interval 1MiB"

I googled about for "netsniff-ng" and "Poll failed!" but it appears this 
may have cropped up recently, since nothing turned up in my digging.
