Neither of them seem to provide a way to write the pcap_pkthdr's for individual packets. To me, it looks like pylibpcap depends on libpcap's internal routing of packets from the capture source to the dump file. That wont work for me because I am constructing the packets in-memory. With pcapy, I dont think it exports/wraps/exposes the struct pcap_pkthdr which is required by its dump method.
