Error: size of array element is not a multiple of its alignment
-
I've been going on with the Linux + cert., and when I got to the open-source episode to download John the ripper I came into this error. The error says it occurred in lines 112 and 113. The status looks more or less like this :
112| error: size of array element is not a multiple of its alignment

Compilation errors are almost always tied to version differences in the compiler or dependencies. I suspect your version of GCC is either older or newer than what John the Ripper is expecting. Check their documentation and see what their requirements are. Then you can compare that against whatever tooling you are using to make sure you have the required supporting software.
