+DESCRIPTION="
+libpcap provides a portable \
+framework for low-level network monitoring.  Applications include \
+network statistics collection, security monitoring, network debugging, \
+etc.  Since almost every system vendor provides a different interface \
+for packet capture, and since we''ve developed several tools that \
+require this functionality, we''ve created this system-independent API \
+to ease in porting and to alleviate the need for several \
+system-dependent packet capture modules in each application."
