Have you also installed the latest Security Update?  If so, note that it
*partially* installes libpcap 0.8.1 - it installs the library, but *not*
the relevant header files.

The libpcap header files that Ethereal is using in the configure script
are the ones from 10.3.2.

The libpcap library that Ethereal is using in the configure script is the
0.8.1 one, whether it came from Fink or the latest security update.

If you've installed the latest Security Update, I'd un-install the Fink
libpcap, get the libpcap 0.8.1 source, and copy the "pcap.h",
"pcap-stdinc.h", and "pcap-bpf.h" header files from the libpcap 0.8.1
source into "/usr/include", and then try re-running the configure script.
