mongoreplay does not exist in mongodb-org official repository for Linux distributions, I tried to find out exact time that it is removed, but I couldn't, I traced it up to version 3.2.9 in the apt repo, none of -tools packages have it
And also taking a look at this in packager.py: # Remove the mongoreplay binary due to libpcap dynamic It is wired for a team to develop a program and then not ship that with this weird if! (If it is our work there, delete it!)
I think libpcap can be simply a dependency for mongoreplay package, libpcap is available under any distro I checked! |

Hi ali.molaei, So this removal from our rpms and debs was intentional – due to the fact that:
So in the short term – for the MongoDB PKGCONFIGs in Arch Linux's AUR – you can ignore this. It's a bigger issue that we hope to address in MongoDB 4.2+ via changes to mongoreplay so that the traffic capture happens on the server side rather than from the network (so no libpcap usage). Thank you for the ticket and your work on the MongoDB packages in AUR! Matt |
