Hello again all

I'm mostly trying to follow:
https://redmine.openinfosecfoundation.org/projects/suricata/wiki/Installation_from_GIT_with_PF_RING_on_Ubuntu_server_1104

At the moment it doesn't seem to build with libpcap in another
location either - or am I missing something?

./configure --with-libpcap-includes=/usr/local/include
- --with-libpcap-libraries=/usr/local/lib

checking pcap.h usability... yes
checking pcap.h presence... yes
checking for pcap.h... yes
checking for pcap_open_live in -lpcap... no

   ERROR!  libpcap library not found, go get it
   from http://www.tcpdump.org or your distribution:

   Ubuntu: apt-get install libpcap-dev
   Fedora: yum install libpcap-devel

In config.log:

configure:15618: checking for pcap.h
configure:15618: result: yes
configure:15632: checking for pcap_open_live in -lpcap
configure:15657: gcc -o conftest -g -O2 -Wextra -Wall -fno-strict-aliasing

- -DHAVE_NET_ETHERNET_H  -I/usr/local/include

/usr/local/lib/libpcap.so: undefined reference to `pfring_get_ring_id'
/usr/local/lib/libpcap.so: undefined reference to `pfring_breakloop'
/usr/local/lib/libpcap.so: undefined reference to `pfring_enable_ring'
/usr/local/lib/libpcap.so: undefined reference to `pfring_send'
<snip>

I can see there is clearly an interaction between the PF_RING modified
libpcap and this process.

If I install libpcap-dev (i.e. the distro supplied one)
then everything builds okay.
