Description-en: Python interface to the libpcap packet capture library (Python 3)
Pcapy is a Python extension module that interfaces with the libpcap
packet capture library.
.
Pcapy enables Python scripts to capture packets on the network. Pcapy
is highly effective when used in conjunction with a packet-handling
package such as Impacket, which is a collection of Python classes for
constructing and dissecting network packets.
.
This package installs the library for Python 3.
