kismetwireless / kismet-packages Goto Github PK

Hi there,
copied the kismet-openwrt folder into openwrt/feeds/packages/net/
./scripts/feeds/update
./scripts/feeds/install -a
when trying to choose kismet in make menuconfig it doesn't show even when revealing hidden packages.
(and yes i've deleted the old kismet directory from the openwrt directory)
i was able to build by changing the inner kismet directory name to kismet-server.

Do we actually need python2 and the python3-cython and python3-numpy (v1.19.1) packages?

The Makefiles RTLSDR capture packages for Kismet along with Python packages (cython, numpy, protobuf websocket) have the following denoting the dependencies for both Python 2.x and 3.x:

include $(TOPDIR)/feeds/packages/lang/python/python-package.mk
include $(TOPDIR)/feeds/packages/lang/python/python3-package.mk

The Setup.py for the these capture packages have only a dependency for Python >=3.2:
python_requires='>=3.2',

OpenWRT currently supports Python3 with Python2 moved to https://github.com/openwrt/packages-abandoned

I've successfully in compiled for for openWRT-21.02 after commenting out the need for python-package.mk:

• RTLSDRcapture packages
• python3-protobuf
• python3-websockets

python3-cython never became a dependency for me and I used python3-numpy from OpenWRT's feed instead.

Am i missing anything by commenting out python3, using OpenWRT's python3-numpy (v1.20.2) package and not compiling this repo's python3-cython?

Caveat: I'm a beginner with Kismet and intermediate in building software.

Hello,
Is that doc is correct: https://www.kismetwireless.net/docs/howto/openwrt/
I compile on Ubuntu 20.04 and i don't see package Kismet in menuconfig, only -capture-, moreover kismet-tools(and others) after run "make menuconfig" says that don't have dependencies "kismet".

Someone can confirm that?

Hello,

I try to make a Kismet server init script for OpenWRT. I would like to change default user data storage from ~/.kismet to a different place. I try to run Kismet with parameters --confdir/homedir but without success. Kismet still uses the user's home dir location.

Do you know what is wrong? I used Kismet 2020-12-R3.

Thank you.

I compile the packages to run on OpenWrt with the OpenWrt SDK 23.05.3 for Raspberry Pi 3 B. I use this build based on xchwarze's example.

After successfully compiling and installing on the system, the wifi and GPS capture work perfectly. However, when trying to run Kismet_cap_sdr_rtl433/kismet_cap_sdr_rtladsb/kismet_cap_sdr_rtlamr using an SDR dongle, I get this output:

Traceback (most recent call last):

TypeError: Descriptors cannot be created directly.
If this call came from a _pb2.py file, your generated code is out of date and must be regenerated with protoc >= 3.19.0.
If you cannot immediately regenerate your protos, some other possible workarounds are:
 1. Downgrade the protobuf package to 3.20.x or lower.
 2. Set PROTOCOL_BUFFERS_PYTHON_IMPLEMENTATION=python (but this will use pure-Python parsing and will be much slower).

I tried to delete the python3-protobuf_4.25.1-1_aarch64_cortex-a53.ipk and install the version of protobuf from the opkg repository. I succeeded in seeing the interface on the Kismet web interface, but I cannot activate it. I haven't tried to downgrade the protoc as the output suggests in the compilation, because that involves working around the packages. I want to hear your opinion on this.

best,

Hi all,

Line 33 of /openwrt/kismet-openwrt/kismet-icao/Makefile should read:

define Package/kismet-icao-database/install

It appears this Makefile was originally from "kismet-manuf" but was not updated to reflect the package target.

Hi, it would awesome if the APT repository supported Ubuntu 24.04, Noble Numbat. Thank you
