Solaris 9 compile errors - pcap_datalink undefined symbol

["Jain, Siddhartha" <Siddhartha.Jain () kla-tencor com>]

Hi,

Warning: Long mail

I am trying to compile Snort 2.6.0 on Solaris 9 running in 32-bit mode
on a Ultra-1. Some specs:
OS
===
SunOS acetest 5.9 Generic_118558-27 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-1

GCC
===
gcc (GCC) 3.3.2

libpcap
=====
SMClpcap 0.9.4

I run configure this way:
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/snort
--with-postgresql=/usr/local/pgsql/
--with-libpcap-libraries=/usr/local/lib
--with-libpcap-includes=/usr/local/include

I snipped the code used for pcap test by the configure script and
compiled is separately. The object code came out fine but linking fails
with the same error:

acetest:/test # ld -L/usr/local/lib -I/usr/local/include -lm -lsocket
-lnsl -lpcap test.o
Undefined first referenced
symbol in file
pcap_datalink test.o
ld: fatal: Symbol referencing errors. No output written to a.out

So I ran the linking with truss. Truss shows that the linker does find
libpcap.so
