libcap on freebsd?

[denis21]

Hi all. I'm new to FreeBSD. Please do not curse much, if anything, I do not understand.
Please tell me how to install libcap on FreeBSD 9.0?

I'm assuming you mean PCAP. It's already part of the base OS.

See pcap(3).

When I want to build one software I get the error message:

checking for main in -lcap... no

The experience of using debian - a reason for the absence of this library.

There is no separate library for it.
