What do you get if you run "sysdig --version"? If you used the official Ubuntu packages, those are a few versions behind upstream (currently at 0.1.87 while we are at 0.1.89): http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty-backports/sysdig http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty-backports/sysdig. What we recommend is uninstalling those ones (sysdig and sysdig-dkms) and just use the binaries that we, Draios, provide, following this: https://github.com/draios/sysdig/wiki/How-to-Install-Sysdig-for-Linux https://github.com/draios/sysdig/wiki/How-to-Install-Sysdig-... Should be very easy, and sysdig --version should show 0.1.89

Ah ok, mine says "sysdig version 0.1.87". Thanks, I'll give that a shot instead.

version on brew is 0.1.88. What's the best way for mac users to get this?

  Yeah, bummer, I can submit a PR to Homebrew but it would take a few hours/days, and we don't ship OSX binaries from Draios, so why don't you go with: https://github.com/draios/sysdig/wiki/How-to-Install-Sysdig-from-the-Source-Code#linux-and-osx https://github.com/draios/sysdig/wiki/How-to-Install-Sysdig-... Assuming you have a C/C++ compiler installed (comes via XCode) it really takes like 2 minutes. Lazy alternative, in a couple days maximum Homebrew should be updated, unfortunately it doesn't depend on us. Also, notice that sysdig for OSX doesn't (yet) have live capture, so you'll just be able to run the chisel on a trace file that you previously created on a Linux host.

    If you publish the updated brew, can't it manually be added by users?
    - gighi 12y ago
      Yes, we most definitely can publish a private brew tap. I'm no expert as I mainly use Linux, but my understanding is that I'd need to create a brand new draios/homebrew-sysdig repo. I'll try to find the time to look into this and update the documentation. If, instead, just a PR to our main repo would suffice, feel free to send it over and we'll merge it in no time :)

Why is the Ubuntu package version behind the upstream version?
- gighi 12y ago
  We just released 0.1.89 (special release to include the shellshock chisel) a few hours ago, so distribution maintainers aren't that fast: https://github.com/draios/sysdig/releases https://github.com/draios/sysdig/releases Debian is currently at 0.1.88: https://packages.debian.org/sid/sysdig https://packages.debian.org/sid/sysdig And Ubuntu periodically merges all the unstable packages from Debian, so that's why they're lagging one version behind at this moment.
