pfSense » pfSense Packages

The Snort package binary piece (snort-2.9.20_1) fails to install on the latest 2.7.0-DEVEL snapshot due to an apparent issue with luajit-openresty and/or other LUA components. I am the Snort package maintainer, but I will need some assistance from the Netgate developer team to get this one sorted out. Brad Davis may be the correct person to help out.

Here is the full package installation log with the error at the end:
