hi
i recently installed nmap-5.21 on my fedora using the tar.gz file and the installation was successful (with the typical dragon head at the end of configuration) after which i did make and make install and it showed installation succesful

now there is an icon for zenmap and zenmap as root under my internet menu but they dont work

((

when i tried to run the command /usr/local/share/zenmap/su-to-zenmap.sh %F
the output is

[root@blitz ~]# /usr/local/share/zenmap/su-to-zenmap.sh %F
python: /builddir/build/BUILD/Python-2.7/Objects/dictobject.c:759: PyDict_SetItem: Assertion `value' failed.
/usr/local/share/zenmap/su-to-zenmap.sh: line 50: 24779 Aborted (core dumped) $COMMAND
[root@blitz ~]#

i chkd the line 50 which has 'fi' in the end

im new to linux and the only problem i face is installation of softwares

thx for ur time

Hi!

May I ask you why you didn't install nmap and GUI for it (Zenmap) from the repos with Add/Remove Software? It is also version 5.21. I did it and it's working just as it should.

Checking your default repositories with package manager should be first step when looking for some software to install. Try that first next time.

What do you get when you run nmap from the terminal with command as simply as:

Code:

nmap
