The dependencies on CPAN refer to dependencies on other Perl modules,
but the module may be dependent on external libraries. In this case
it looks like the module is dependent on libpcap and you do not have
the library and/or the headers installed. I don't know which flavor
of Linux you are using, but you can install the requisite packages
with your package manager:
sudo apt-get install libpcap libpcap-dev
sudo yum install libpcap libpcap-devel
sudo emerge something
Tried it but looks like I have them installed. perhaps they are old?
