NAME
pcap-config - write libpcap compiler and linker flags to standard
output
SYNOPSIS
pcap-config [ --static ] [ --cflags | --libs | --additional-libs ]
DESCRIPTION
When run with the --cflags option, pcap-config writes to the standard
output the -I compiler flags required to include libpcap's header
files. When run with the --libs option, pcap-config writes to the
standard output the -L and -l linker flags required to link with
libpcap, including -l flags for libraries required by libpcap. When
run with the --additional-libs option, pcap-config writes to the
standard output the -L and -l flags for libraries required by libpcap,
but not the -lpcap flag to link with libpcap itself. By default, it
writes flags appropriate for compiling with a dynamically-linked
version of libpcap; the --static flag causes it to write flags
appropriate for compiling with a statically-linked version of libpcap.
