Use flags of 2025.09.1-r1

  • libusb Support libusb based capture sources such as mousejack, cc2540(ble), and nrf51822(ble)
  • lm-sensors Add linux lm-sensors (hardware sensors) support
  • mqtt Enable MQTT support
  • networkmanager Enable net-misc/networkmanager support
  • +pcre Build with pcre support
  • protobuf Support old protobuf message passing in case of remote capture sources which are not up to date.
  • rtlsdr Enable rtlsdr based kismet capture sources
  • selinux !!internal use only!! Security Enhanced Linux support, this must be set by the selinux profile or breakage will occur
  • +suid Install a setuid root helper binary with limited functionality; this allows running kismet as a normal user, significantly reducing security risks
  • ubertooth Enable capture source for ubertooth to sniff bluetooth low energy
  • udev Enable virtual/udev integration (device discovery, power and storage device support, etc)
  • +wext Enable building kismet with support for the deprecated Linux Wireless Extensions. This is required for some out of tree and staging drivers, and kismet has not been well tested with it disabled, so it defaults to on.
