Subject: Fixup a couple man pages. [skip ci]
X-Git-Tag: libpcap-1.10.2~154
X-Git-Url: https://git.tcpdump.org/libpcap/commitdiff_plain/4c5c089345bd6976574b0e701d78be82114c0a6c

Fixup a couple man pages. [skip ci]

In pcap_init(3PCAP) tell PCAP_ERROR instead of -1 because the value is
in fact an error code (see commit a973128 message for the rationale).
Ibid. and in pcap_datalink_val_to_name(3PCAP) tell the correct libpcap
release in the backward compatibility note.

(cherry picked from commit 1a184e105125fd6f01d3fe86239a26afe270cd83)
