I have some problem with install tcpdump latest version .
I have installed libpcap 1.2.1 form tcpdump site and when I want install tcpdump , I can't go trough configure stage .
I include config.log file

As in all these "pcap_parse not found" cases, that's a problem with libpcap, so we'd need the config.log file, and the 
output of the build process, for libpcap.

(I'm going to change the configure file to ask for that explicitly in that case.  People keep reporting this problem - 
which I haven't been able to reproduce on any of the Linux distributions on which I've tried it - and I keep asking for 
the additional information, but nobody bothers to give us the libpcap config.log file or build process output, so we 
can't figure out why it's happening, and thus can't fix it.)-
