Hello Neil, or anyone else affected, Accepted libpcap into bionic-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libpcap/1.8.1-6ubuntu1.18.04.2 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository. Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users. If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed- bionic to verification-done-bionic. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification- failed-bionic. In either case, without details of your testing we will not be able to proceed. Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance for helping! N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s) fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in -proposed for a minimum of 7 days. ** Changed in: libpcap (Ubuntu Bionic) Status: In Progress => Fix Committed ** Tags added: verification-needed verification-needed-bionic -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1865501 Title: libpcap-dev and derivatives missing libpcap.pc To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/libpcap/+bug/1865501/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

** Changed in: libpcap (Ubuntu Bionic) Status: Triaged => In Progress ** Description changed: + [Impact] + + Users of libpcap cannot make use of its pkg-config file in order to + automate the building process of applications that use the library, + because the file is not being installed on Ubuntu bionic. + + [Test Case] + + $ lxc launch ubuntu-daily:bionic libpcap-bug1865501 + $ lxc shell libpcap-bug1865501 + # apt update + # apt install libpcap-dev pkg-config -y + # pkg-config libpcap --libs + + You will see an error like this: + + Package libpcap was not found in the pkg-config search path. + Perhaps you should add the directory containing `libpcap.pc' + to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable + No package 'libpcap' found + + [Regression Potential] + + - The libpcap package will be rebuilt using newer dependencies on + bionic, which might cause some unforeseen problem.

strictly speaking, I'm not running any specific release myself, I'ts the CI environment on github thats running it, and it appears to be running trusty: https://travis-ci.org/nhorman/dropwatch/jobs/657253596/config I can move it forward without issue, but Travis only currently supports Bionic as the latest LTS release, so if you can backport support for the pkgconfig file to there, I'd be good to go. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1865501 Title: libpcap-dev and derivatives missing libpcap.pc To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/libpcap/+bug/1865501/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

This was fixed in 1.9.0-2: libpcap (1.9.0-2) unstable; urgency=medium [ Luca Boccassi ] * Install upstream pkg-config file (closes: #922219). Ubuntu Eoan (19.10) and later have this fix.
