Thanks for that - I've checked and cannot find any other library other than
the one I've installed, all normal places have been checked i.e.
Usr/local/bin, usr/share.

If I delete the library that I installed I still get the error message as if
a library is still being found! Any other ideas of where to else look or to
try as desperation is creeping in !

I mean that the library function pcap_version was added to libpcap in it's
version 0.7.1.

Sounds like your update didn't work.

Make sure there isn't more than ONE libpcap that your invocation will find.
