Hello.

I'm trying to use an application that needs to be linked dinamically against libpcap, so it needs libpacp.so to be installed.

I've downloaded libpcap-0.9.3 and installed it, but it only provides the static library libpcap.a. I've tried also adding --enable-shared to configure but it didn't work.

Is there any hack that I can make to get the shared object? Perhaps using an older version of libpcap?

Thanks.
