I'm reaching out to see if anyone else experienced similar nprobe and ntopng install issues on Ubuntu 16.10.
I started with a clean install, fully patched, and rebooted. I then run the following: wget http://apt-stable.ntop.org/16.04/all/apt-ntop-stable.deb <http://apt-stable.ntop.org/16.04/all/apt-ntop-stable.deb>dpkg -i apt-ntop-stable.deb apt-get clean all apt-get update The update says there's no Release file and it can't find Packages: .../16.10/all/Packages 404 Not Found .../16.10/x64/Packages 404 Not Found But I try to install any way: apt-get install pfring nprobe ntopng This returns that it can't find the pfring, nor nprobe packages. I then try: apt-get install ntopng and it WORKS. I try nprobe by itself unsuccessfully: root@ntop:~# apt-get install nprobe Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done E: Unable to locate package nprobe So I download the packages manually, but it requires DKMS installed first, so I install that separately: root@ntop:~# apt-get install dkms Reading package lists... Done The following NEW packages will be installed: binutils cpp cpp-6 dkms fakeroot gcc gcc-6 libasan3 libatomic1 libc-dev-bin libc6-dev libcc1-0 libcilkrts5 libfakeroot libgcc-6-dev libgomp1 libisl15 libitm1 liblsan0 libmpc3 libmpx2 libquadmath0 libtsan0 libubsan0 linux-libc-dev make manpages-dev 0 upgraded, 27 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded. Then I manually download and install nprobe: root@ntop:~# wget http://apt-stable.ntop.org/16.04/x64/nprobe_7.4.170202-5334_amd64.deb root@ntop:~# dpkg -i nprobe_7.4.170202-5334_amd64.deb Selecting previously unselected package nprobe.

Errors were encountered while processing: nprobe It requires librdkafka1 and others to be installed first: root@ntop:~# apt-get install librdkafka1 Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these: The following packages have unmet dependencies: nprobe : Depends: pfring (= 6.4.1-1118) but it is not installable Depends: libcurl3 but it is not going to be installed Depends: libnetfilter-queue1 but it is not going to be installed E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution). root@ntop:~# apt-get -f install Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Correcting dependencies... Done The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required: libcurl3 libnetfilter-queue1 librdkafka1 Use 'apt autoremove' to remove them. The following additional packages will be installed: libcurl3 libnetfilter-queue1 librdkafka1 The following packages will be REMOVED: nprobe The following NEW packages will be installed: libcurl3 libnetfilter-queue1 librdkafka1 0 upgraded, 3 newly installed, 1 to remove and 0 not upgraded. 1 not fully installed or removed. So it finishes and removes nprobe, which I didn't think was installed. I then try nprobe again: root@ntop:~# dpkg -i nprobe_7.4.170202-5334_amd64.deb Selecting previously unselected package nprobe. (Reading database ... 100216 files and directories currently installed.) Preparing to unpack nprobe_7.4.170202-5334_amd64.deb ...

Nprobe requires PFRing, so I then download and install pfring: root@ntop:~# wget http://apt-stable.ntop.org/16.04/x64/pfring_6.4.1-1118_amd64.deb root@ntop:~# dpkg -i pfring_6.4.1-1118_amd64.deb Selecting previously unselected package pfring.

Bad return status for module build on kernel: 4.8.0-22-generic (x86_64) Consult /var/lib/dkms/pfring/6.4.1/build/make.log for more information. I get an error and try PFRing alone: root@ntop:~# dpkg -i pfring_6.4.1-1118_amd64.deb (Reading database ... 100311 files and directories currently installed.)

It works, so then I try nprobe again: root@ntop:~# dpkg -i nprobe_7.4.170202-5334_amd64.deb (Reading database ... 100311 files and directories currently installed.) Preparing to unpack nprobe_7.4.170202-5334_amd64.deb ... Unpacking nprobe (7.4.170202-5334) over (7.4.170202-5334) ... Setting up nprobe (7.4.170202-5334) ... Rebuilding ld cache...

With all of this said, I had no issues installing the recommended way on Ubuntu 14. I'm sure I'm doing something wrong along the way, so any advice would be much appreciated.
