Installation of WinPcap developer's pack

[Bob McConnell]

I am trying to install Net::Pcap for Camelbox Perl on WinXP. cpan
returns the error message below, but won't tell me what the standard
location should be for WpdPack.

Where do I put it?

looking for -lwpcap... yes

You appear to lack the WinPcap developer pack.

If it is installed in a non-standard location, please try setting the
LIBS
and INC values on the command line. For instance, if you have unziped
the
developer's pack in C:\WpdPack, you should execute:

perl Makefile.PL INC=-IC:/WpdPack/Include "LIBS=-LC:/WpdPack/Lib
-lwpcap"

Or get and install the WinPcap developer's pack from
http://www.winpcap.org/install/

I am also having problems installing Net::Pcap on Slackware Linux. It
fails a number of tests and simply refuses to complete the installation.
This is Perl 5.10.0 on Slackware 12.2.0.

Any suggestions?
