Re: libpcap not found by configure

["James Schnack" <acrux14 () hotmail com>]

That was done already... anyways, I re-checked and repeated it just in case, 
but with no luck.  :-(

Any other ideas...?

I still end up with:

[...]
checking for pcap_datalink in -lpcap... no

  ERROR!  Libpcap library/headers not found, go get it from
  http://www.tcpdump.org
  or use the --with-libpcap-* options, if you have it installed
  in unusual place

when configuring.

Maybe somebody could tell me what are the files I should end up with after 
installing (compiling) libpcap ? Because I don't have any file with a name 
including pcap_datalink... (should I ?)

I do have /usr/local/lib/libpcap.a, /usr/local/include/pcap.h and 
/usr/local/include/pcap-namedb.h. But I'm starting to think this may not be 
enough.

All ideas appreciated!

TIA,

James
