Hello Peter! I've just found what AirPcap is - it looks like a some sort of a proprietary Windows-only hardware dongle for low level access to a Wireless network: * https://www.cacetech.com/support/airpcap_faq.html#faq_12 Although it didn't make any troubles before, it does now (since v. 1.99.<something> it breaks building). This might be fixed soon but why bother at all if we cannot use it anyway? Another one proposal is to add --with-libnl option instead. This adds building against libnl library available in Fedora (libnl3 works fine). This library also allows low-level access to a wifi network. Although I didn't test it yet. The airpicap support was added by Jan Safranek in this commit: e0d0dbd9c05ad15669c1da9c2bd21864d6e786f1 It looks like an accident. I've checked Debian and OpenSUSE - none of them uses --enable-airpcap during build.
Jan, out of curiosity could you please remember what was the reason to enable airpcap?
"Thu Jun 9 2011", that's a long time ago. I really don't remember why I enabled it, sorry. Indeed it looks like a mistake.
