Description:

Ticket  FS#40947  (https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/40947) requested to use libpcap version shipped with nmap.

Gaetan Bisson accepted to use nmap's libpcap until system libpcap can be used again.

The latest release of nmap ships with libpcap 1.9.0. The latest version is 1.9.1 which also ships with Arch Linux.

The concern raised in the ticket is long resolved. The commit https://github.com/archlinux/svntogit-packages/commit/241643976e71b6586a2fd9204e613e5d1e9a83de can be reverted.
