====================================================================== 
Summary:                    iftop displays zeroes for all values
Description: 
Following an upgrade to the current or unstable branches, iftop stops
working and displays only zeroes:

TX:             cumm:     0B    peak:      0b   rates:      0b      0b     
0b
RX:                       0B               0b               0b      0b     
0b
TOTAL:                    0B               0b               0b      0b     
0b 

Switching back to the stable branch, and reinstalling only iftop and
libpcap, it works again.

Still does not work. Only zeroes are shown regardless of the traffic.
