configure (which autogen.sh) runs should look in /usr/include/pcap
We've had this problem before with other people using redhat.
I use redhat 6.0 at work, my bpf.h file is in /usr/include/pcap/net/bpf.h,
and it works fine for me. Go figure...
Please run:
./configure | tee c.out
And look at c.out. During the configuration for ethereal (not wiretap),
I get these lines:
checking whether to use libpcap for packet capture... yes
checking for extraneous pcap header directories... found -- -L/usr/include/pcap added to LIBS and CFLAGS
checking for net/bpf.h... (cached) yes
checking for pcap.h... (cached) yes
What does your "checking for extraneous pcap header directories..."
line say?
