Wireshark-dev: Re: [Wireshark-dev] How do you tell cmake to look in /usr/local/lib for libpcap?

Have you recreated the CMakeCache.txt? Could you try running the command in a completely new environment, but with PCAP_HINTS set to /usr/local for the first run?

It seems that cmake/modules/FindPCAP.cmake just does not take PCAP_HINTS and most likely with cmake that's because it has already stored a value for that internally. So clearing the cache would do the trick.

cheers

Hi folks,

I am not having much luck getting cmake to look in the right place for
the library.

I have set PCAP_HINTS to /usr/local and cmake is finding the include
files, but not the correct libraries ...

-- Looking for pcap_set_tstamp_type - found
-- Looking for pcap_open
-- Looking for pcap_open - not found
-- PCAP FOUND
-- PCAP includes: /usr/local/include
-- PCAP libs: /lib64/libpcap.so   # This is not what I want.
