It seems to be pulled from the DPDK pkg-config (which depends on
libpcap, itself depending on libsystem-dev when statically linking).
# pkg-config --static --libs libpcap
-lpcap -ldbus-1 -lsystemd -libverbs -lbnxt_re-rdmav34 -lcxgb4-rdmav34
-lefa -lerdma-rdmav34 -lhns-rdmav34 -lirdma-rdmav34 -lmana -lmlx4
-lmlx5 -lmthca-rdmav34 -locrdma-rdmav34 -lqedr-rdmav34
-lvmw_pvrdma-rdmav34 -lhfi1verbs-rdmav34 -lipathverbs-rdmav34
-lrxe-rdmav34 -lsiw-rdmav34 -libverbs -lpthread -lnl-route-3 -lnl-3
-lpthread
But, we don't need net/pcap anymore since commit 98ee21ef6364
("system-dpdk: Use dummy-pmd port for packet injection.").
I sent a patch:
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/openvswitch/patch/[email protected]/
Btw, I don't think libbpf-dev is needed anymore (for DPDK compilation
at least), as long as libxdp-dev is installed.
