Libpcap is part of OpenBSD, as far as I can tell. My belief is that OpenBSD sees no reason to ship Linux symbols that are unused in OpenBSD. I am not versed in OpenBSD development, but that's how it seems to me. OpenBSD prefers code clean and tidy and it's not clear to me how Linux symbols would fit into that approach. > > Unfortunately i don't have access to any OpenBSD at the moment; > is that something you can give it a try?
