[HECnet] building simh

[Sampsa Laine]

OK,

I know I'm not really answering your question but have you tried installing it through an rpm?

I found one here:  http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat/4/idpl/17350842/dir/fedora_16/com/simh-3.8.1-6.fc14.x86_64.rpm.html

Well, this isn't a linux forum but perhaps one of you solved this problem. 
I have an Asus Eee PC 900, and it Tnow) has Fedora 14 installed. 
It runs the bridge program and I want to run simh on this box since it is cheap on mains power. Its battery is shot which is why my ex gave it to me. 
I have libpcap installed and used 'make USE_NETWORK'=1' to build simh. 
Which fails because it cannot locate 
/usr/local/llib/libpcap.a
There is a libpcap.so, in /usr/lib
Am I running an old version of linux, or made an error installing libcap?
