Hi Paul,

I can't compile this latest version on Linux. I have attempted to build it 
on CentOS 4.4 (A RedHat 4.4 clone) and Ubuntu Feisty Fawn (7.04). I get 
this error on both:

dnscap.c: In function 'dl_pkt':
dnscap.c:964: warning: cast discards qualifiers from pointer target type
make: *** [dnscap.o] Error 1

I'm not really a C programmer, so I don't know what that error means, and 
how to fix it.
