[Simh] forcing simh to build without pcap

Trying to build on QNX‎ 6 Neutrino.

Need to use slirp patch anyway - no need to build with pcap support, even if it did happen to work right away.‎

HI Danny,

What platform are you running on?

Can you explain what you are actually trying to do and why?

Have you tried with the code from https://github.com/simh/simh/archive/master.zip

You only need to compile with the following command:

                $ make vax

The resulting binary should run even if you subsequently remove libpcap from the system you are running on.

Is there an easy way to force simh to not try to use libpcap / pcap during the compile process, even if it thinks it exists / will work?

I thought I'd ask here before spending a significant amount of time trying to understand the makefile; I'm guessing I'm just missing something obvious in the compiling system.

I did try to temporarily move pcap.h elsewhere so it wasn't found, but that didn't work.

Thanks,
-Danny
