Issues with libpcap (again)

I'm trying to compile ethereal to do some network analysis. It requires libpcap. As far as I can tell, that compiled and installed correctly, but ethereal's configure script still does this:

Code:

configure: error: Header file net/bpf.h not found; if you installed libpcap from source, did you also do "make install-incl"?

The weird thing is that the file exists. It's in /usr/include/net, along with a number of other headers. I tried running make install-incl, but that target isn't defined in the latest release of libpcap. I assume the functions were rolled into make install.

What am I screwing up?
