Then in lib/librte_pmd_pcap/Makefile, we can just add LDFLAGS+=-lpcap, and the loading of the pcap pmd will itself require the loading of libpcap. That would be a nice clean implementation that allows applications to just link the pmd and not have to worry about dependencies. It would also allow us to clean up other dependencies like the xenvirt pmd and vhost. Neil
