34.SH DESCRIPTION
35.LP
36When run with the
37.B \-\-cflags
38option,
39.I pcap-config
40writes to the standard output the
41.B \-I
42compiler flags required to include libpcap's header files.
43When run with the
44.B \-\-libs
45option,
46.I pcap-config
47writes to the standard output the
48.B \-L
49and
50.B \-l
51linker flags required to link with libpcap, including
52.B \-l
53flags for libraries required by libpcap.
54When run with the
55.B \-\-additional-libs
56option,
57.I pcap-config
58writes to the standard output the
59.B \-L
60and
61.B \-l
62flags for libraries required by libpcap, but not the
63.B \-lpcap
64flag to link with libpcap itself.
65.LP
66By default, it writes flags appropriate for compiling with a
67dynamically-linked version of libpcap; the
68.B \-\-static
69flag causes it to write flags appropriate for compiling with a
70statically-linked version of libpcap.
