Compiling tcpreplay libpcap trouble

Hello everyone,
I'm trying to compile tcpreplay on my system (since it doesn't seem to be in the repository), and I'm getting the following error when running ./configure.

checking for libpcap... configure: error: Unable to find matching library for header file in /usr/

I do have libpcap installed, I have several other programs that depend on it installed and running happily. I've tried messing with some of the settings within the configure script, but no matter what I do, I get this error. Anyone have any suggestions?

Try using the tcpreplay PKGBUILD from the AUR; it builds here.
