Libpcap as shared object

[Werner Schalk <werner_schalk () gmx de>]

Hi,

this maybe a dump question but I did not found
any answer to it: How can I compile libpcap with
a shared object (libpcap.so) file? I have successfully
compiled and installed it but it has only created
an .a file. I have tried this command to create a shared
object manually:

ld -G -o libpcap.so -lnsl -lresolv -lc -z allextract

This works but the shared object is not accepted by
the apps using libpcap.

Any hints/ideas would be pretty much appreciated.

Bye and thanks,
Werner.
