Hi,
I asked the developers and i just want to let you now the answeres.
The libpcap dependecies problem:
The problem is that internally in the past the libpcap ABI has
changed, therefore a pretty exact match between ethereal and libpcap
was always necessary.
As unfortunatelt no combined update has been done for ethereal and
libpcap on FC1 i suggest you simply use the FC2 versions of both,
which is a good idea anyway imho.
Phil Knirsch (pknirsch@redhat.com)
and the ppp libpcap problem:
Try building it from the src.rpm, let us know the result.
A workaround is to try an older version of the PPP 2.4.2 package, as
the dependency on libpcap.so.0 is only recent. 2.4.2_cvs_20031104 does
not require it. See
http://quozl.netrek.org/pptp/ppp.phtml for that
version.
The right solution might be for me to release another version without
the libpcap dependency. There's a way I can build pppd without it.

What me helped is upgraded to libpcap FC2 version and installed the older ppp-2.4.2_cvs version
