Since you are on the 16.04, this version already comes (As of the 13th of August 2016) with the latest version of aircrack-ng. So the only needed way would be a simple:
sudo apt install aircrack-ng
The version right now is 1.2-0~beta3-4
which corresponds to the latest one on the official Aircrack page.
The one in the repository is already the latest version for Ubuntu 16.04.
Do apt-cache policy aircrack-ng
to check the available version. The output should be something similar to:
aircrack-ng:
Installed: (none)
Candidate: 1:1.2-0~beta3-4
Version table:
1:1.2-0~beta3-4 500
Now, from Aircrack-ng website the link for Debian
packages redirects to a develper page and a ftp page where the package version is the same as the one received from the above command.
So, to install the latest package just do:
sudo apt-get install aircrack-ng
- Download from https://www.aircrack-ng.org/ latest version and unpack.
- Open unpacked folder in terminal.
- run
sudo apt-get install build-essential autoconf automake libtool pkg-config libnl-3-dev libnl-genl-3-dev libssl-dev ethtool shtool rfkill zlib1g-dev libpcap-dev libsqlite3-dev libpcre3-dev libhwloc-dev libcmocka-dev hostapd wpasupplicant tcpdump screen iw usbutils
- run
autoreconf -i
- run
./configure
- run
make
- run
make install
Done!
