Wireshark · Ethereal-dev: [Ethereal-dev] ethereal building error

["gilbert HOYEK" <gil_hoyek@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

hi again i get the following error when building ethereal :
in the ./configure comand :

.....
checking whether to use libpcap for packet capture... yes
checking for extraneous pcap header directories... not found
checking pcap.h usability... yes
checking pcap.h presence... yes
checking for pcap.h... yes
checking for pcap_open_live in -lpcap... no
checking for pcap_open_live in -lpcap -lcfg -lodm... no
configure: error: Library libpcap not found.

knowing that libpcap build task was completed succesfully with the following 
output for the "make instal" command :

llinux:/home/gilberto/libpcap-0.8.3 #
make install
[ -d /usr/local/lib ] || \
   (mkdir -p /usr/local/lib; chmod 755 /usr/local/lib)
/usr/bin/install -c -m 644 libpcap.a /usr/local/lib/libpcap.a
ranlib /usr/local/lib/libpcap.a
[ -d /usr/local/include ] || \
   (mkdir -p /usr/local/include; chmod 755 /usr/local/include)
/usr/bin/install -c -m 644 ./pcap.h /usr/local/include/pcap.h
/usr/bin/install -c -m 644 ./pcap-bpf.h \
 /usr/local/include/pcap-bpf.h
/usr/bin/install -c -m 644 ./pcap-namedb.h \
/usr/local/include/pcap-namedb.h
[ -d /usr/local/man/man3 ] || \
       (mkdir -p /usr/local/man/man3; chmod 755 /usr/local/man/man3)
/usr/bin/install -c -m 644 ./pcap.3 \
   /usr/local/man/man3/pcap.3


the error is only for libpcap because if i use the ./configure 
--without-pcap command it will be done sucessfully.


Thanks in advance

Gilbert.
