By default, if 'configure' finds libcap (the POSIX capabilities
|
||||||
|
library) dumpcap will be built so that if it is installed setuid
|
||||||
|
root, it will attempt to retain CAP_NET_RAW and CAP_NET_ADMIN
|
||||||
|
before dropping root privileges. Use this option to disable this
|
||||||
|
behavior.

|
|

|
--with-libcap=DIR
|
||||||
|
Use this option to tell 'configure' where libcap is installed,
|
||||||
|
if it is installed in a non-standard location. Note that libcap
|
||||||
|
(the POSIX capabilities library, sans "p") and libpcap (the
|
||||||
|
packet capture library, avec "p") are two very different things.
