 You should be able to load the capture file and then save it in any format
that ethereal can write to - and libpcap is definitely one of those formats.
Alternatively: Use editcap, which also comes with the Ethereal package. It
is a command line tool, that allows you to convert between the different
formats Ethereal understands.

We are stuck with technology when what we really want is just stuff that
works. Some say that should read Microsoft instead of technology.
