Bug ID: 54795
           Summary: configure fails to find pcap development libraries
                    with libpcap <1.9.0 present
           Product: Wine
           Version: 8.2
          Hardware: x86-64
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: wpcap

Hello,

In my case, Debian 8 "Jessie" ships libpcap 1.6.2.

According to the man page, pcap_init was introduced in libpcap 1.9.0.
https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man3/pcap_init.3pcap.html

The ~regression~ commit modifies configure to check for pcap_init() in lieu of
pcap_create(), which fails on such old OS.

Regards.
