libpcap is already found and registered as a dependency by meson, and the dependency is already correctly used in librte_port. This line is just unnecessary.
It also has the side effect of messing with the meson link line: dpdk link will be declared twice: manually and then through pkg-config. If you configure meson to prefer static linking over dynamic, this will cause the build to fail on librte_port, since the pcap deps are not yet seen by the linker.
