I have installed libdnet through this repository, and I noticed it installs, among others, the following files:
/bin/sh ../config/mkinstalldirs /usr/local/include
/usr/bin/install -c -m 644 dnet.h /usr/local/include/dnet.h
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Libraries have been installed in:
/usr/local/lib
However, when I try to install Snort (both by compiling it from sources and from the AUR), I receive the following message:
checking dnet.h usability... no
checking dnet.h presence... no
checking for dnet.h... no
checking dumbnet.h usability... no
checking dumbnet.h presence... no
checking for dumbnet.h... no
ERROR! dnet header not found, go get it from
http://code.google.com/p/libdnet/ or use the --with-dnet-*
options, if you have it installed in an unusual place
I also tried to install libdnet through pacman, but still I get the same error.
I tried to manually pass the directory like the following
./configure --with-dnet-includes=/usr/local/include
but to no avail.
Any idea?

Mod note: Moving to AUR issues.
EDIT: for clarity, although you haven't installed via the AUR, this is still unsupported software.
Ideally you should write a PKGBUILD for it, or change this topic into a request for someone to do that for you.
EDIT EDIT: There is already a PKGBUILD: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/snort/
Is there any reason why you installed libdnet via unsupported repository rather than using the package in [community]?

It looks like uninstalling both the manually installed libdnet and the one installed via the community and then installing libdnet again via pacman solved the issue. It is a bit strange, though.
