Try modifiying the PCAP.h file to reflect the following:

line 31: Original - “bool openFile(SdFat &SD);” Modified - “bool openFile(SdFs &SD);”

line 32: Original - “bool removeFile(SdFat &SD);” Modified - “bool removeFile(SdFs &SD);”

line 52: Original - “File file;” Modified - “FsFile file;”

line 52: Original - “File file;” Modified - “FsFile file;”

I ended up having to do the same plus replacing SdFat for SdFs in PCAP.cpp find and replace should do job just as well for PCAP.cpp

And nobody submit pull request with a fix? :)

@abevalle I see you already fixed and committed, could you please open a pull request? :)
