cd /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/
ln -s -f libc.a liblibc.a

This creates a symbolic link to accommodate for the renamed file in python 3.9.

Thank you. It worked for me. In Manjaro 20.2, but `libc.a` file found in `/usr/lib/` – Ahmed Ehab Jan 02 '21 at 20:03

updating scapy to the dev version fixes it and is cleaner – Cukic0d Jan 10 '21 at 11:16

In Fedora: `sudo ln -s -f /usr/lib64/libc.a /usr/lib64/liblibc.a` – Radostin Stoyanov Jan 17 '21 at 15:15

On Arch using Python 3.9.3, upgrading to Scapy 2.4.5 from 2.4.4 fixed the issue – Evyatar Saias Apr 27 '21 at 15:56
On Manjaro 21.2rc: `sudo ln -s -f /usr/lib64/libc.a /usr/lib64/liblibc.a` – nav Dec 11 '21 at 21:15
