libpcap is already found and registered as a dependency by meson, and the dependency is already correctly used in librte_port. This line is just unnecessary.
The pcap PMD and the librte_port both declare their dependency to libpcap with a line "ext_deps += pcap_dep". "pcap_dep" is declared using the dependency() directive in config/meson.build meson automatically adds this dependency to the pkg-config file in the private section for static builds.
