Shouldn't the version of the rules and snort be the same?

This is a diff which only changes what is shown there. The configure
flags won't get touched it I would merge this patch.

Could you simply upload me your git branch with these changes and I
pull them instead?

[PATCH] snort 2.9.7.6: removed unrecognized configure options in lfs file

Hi,

Hm. Any hint whats happening?

I tested this patch today with a clean build and everything went ok, except for some configure warnings:

"configure: WARNING: unrecognized options: --disable-nls, --enable-smb-alerts, --enable-decoder-preprocessor-rules, --enable-zlib"

I removed these options.

Besides, this version is running now for about three weeks without noticeable errors:

Can I investigate further?
