I was trying working with ettercap today, and found out the only version 0.6.bp3
is in the ports tree.  This version is described as deprecated on the ettercap
webpage.  I downloaded the most recent version (0.7.3) and tried to install it.
 When I run the configure script included in I get the following output:

$ ./configure --with-libpcap=/usr/src/lib/libpcap
...
checking for libpcap... /usr/src/lib/libpcap
checking for pcap_datalink_val_to_description in -lpcap... no
configure: error: Incorrect libpcap version. libpcap >= 0.8.1 required

I was told on the #openbsd irc channel that openbsd maintains its own versions
of the libraries.  Is this just due to an old library version, or am I missing
something else?
