Since one of the dependencies to build the project is libpcap 0.8, might be interesting to provide dockerfile to build the application. This way, the user is not "forced" to hunt for compilation dependencies (and you also have the option to provide a pre-built docker image for testing).

Well it did come to my mind but for some reason I thought installing libpcap would be easier than installing docker. I guess we could have two separate builds though.

Also, how would this application access files out of the container? Some of the utilities might not work. I'm sure there's a way for that though. Will look into it as well.

Can I get this issue?

Some tools have their own dockerfile, but it's not just for generate the binaries. Today a lot of people work with docker, then installing docker is not a problem and working direct inside the container is preferable.

@fguisso Hey, sorry about the late response. And yes, please. It'll be helpful :)
