libpcap-1.2.1: Building from source: issues

Hello, I've trying to build from source libpcap-1.2.1 but have been getting into trouble when building other software, lft-3.33, that errors on build. I think I may have missed something in building libpcap-1.2.1 that's causing the other soft to bug out. Currently running LiveCD Lubuntu 11.10 i386. Should all build steps, './configure', 'make', and 'make install' be done from root@ubuntu? What C Compiler is recommended? Is gcc O.K., which do you prefer? What other dependencies will I need to build libpcap-1.2.1? flex and bison are 2 that I am aware of off the top of my head. Can I 'apt-get remove libpcap0.8' before building libpcap-1.2.1? I have used Google but it has not been fruitful for me, maybe I need to change my static DNS entries to better servers. ;D cheers, semi-hex - This is the tcpdump-workers list.
