/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -ldpdk
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [Makefile:419: libpcap.so] Error 1

Libpcap's configure script now only uses pkg-config to try to find DPDK, so the configure script no longer attempts to guess with what libraries to link; this means that if there is no "libdpdk" library, just the libraries that DPDK provides (of which there are at least 48, and possibly over 100), DPDK's pkg-config file won't list a -ldpdk and the libpcap configure script and build process won't try to build with it.

That's in the tip of the main and 1.10 branches and, if there's a 1.10.2 release, will be in that release as well.
