Bug#932282: libnet-pcap-perl: FTBFS: error: redefinition of ‘struct pcap_rmtauth’

[Niko Tyni]

Source: libnet-pcap-perl
Version: 0.18-2
Severity: serious
Tags: ftbfs sid bullseye
X-Debbugs-Cc: libpcap at packages.debian.org

This package fails to build from source on current sid/amd64.

Presumably this regressed with libpcap 1.9.0-2 so copying
the maintainer in case it's an oversight.
