Dear Experts:
Iam having rhel5.5, iam trying to configure snort hence as a requirments
downloaded the libpcap-1.1.1 compiled and installed the same by executing the following command:
./configure --prefix=/opt/snort/snort2
.9 ; make && make install
---------
with the above command successfully got installed without any errors, after this did cd to daq-0.2, by executing the command i,e by pointing to the libpcap path like the below :
./configure --with-libpcap-includes=/o
pt/snort/s
nort2.9/in
clude --with-libpcap-libraries=/
opt/snort/
snort2.9/l

the above compile ends with the following error:
checking for pcap.h... (cached) yes
checking for pcap_lib_version... checking for pcap_lib_version in -lpcap... yes
checking for libpcap version >= "1.0.0"... no
ERROR! Libpcap library version >= 1.0.0 not found.
