    If we only could have some kind of centralised knowledge database where one could type in a request like "pcap library not found" and get a set of automatically collected bits of knowledge related to the problem! – n. m. could be an AI Nov 22 '17 at 08:59
  • @n.m. i don't understand where is the problem, i specified that i was trying to install reaver 1.4 on fedora 27 and got the error ! – mego Nov 22 '17 at 09:11
  • The **first** result Google returns to me has all required information. (And the second, and the third). Perhaps you should consider changing your Google provider. – n. m. could be an AI Nov 22 '17 at 09:37
  • i installed libcap library and still get the error, it feels like libcap is vanished from the system ! – mego Nov 22 '17 at 11:38

For debian based system you'll need the following packages installed:

sudo apt-get install sqlite3 libsqlite3-dev libpcap0.8-dev

Then try ./configure again and you should be fine
