Hello all!
I've found a minor bug in the installation (Makefile.in), meaning
that if the "bin" or any of the "man" directories do not exist in the
target installation directory, then the build fails.
For example if I issue ./configure --prefix=/opt/libpcap-1.0.0;
make; make install it will fail.
I've attached a patch that creates the missing folders. (The patch
is based on the lines in which you create the include or lib folders.)
Thanks all,
Ciprian Craciun.
