Since you're building code from source, you need the libcap.so unversioned shared library. These are typically provided as part of the corresponding -devel package. If you're not sure of the package name, you can run something like:
sudo yum install /usr/lib64/libcap.so
Although in this case, the answer is that you simply need to install the libcap-devel package:
sudo yum install libcap-devel

That makes sense! However - I should have mentioned this in my first post - I am working on a system that is not connected to the Internet. Hence me downloading the necessary library tar files and transferring them onto the target system manually. On the target system, I then run make, which leads me to the error.

I don't think that changes the nature of the error or the solution. Download the libcap-devel package, transfer it to the target system, and install it. However, you should also be able to create a symlink to the existing versioned library, likeln -s libcap.so.2 /usr/lib64/libcap.so.
