Enable IPv6 support if /usr/include/netinet/ip6.h exists.
I did not find a way to have a changes summary for version 0.6.2.
Summary for 0.7 release:
- Added pcap_findalldevs() call to get list of interfaces in a MI way.
- pcap_stats() has been documented as to what its counters mean on
each platform.
The automatic truncation in gensolpkg doesn't work for packages which
have the same package name for the first 5-6 chars.
e.g. amanda-server and amanda-client would be named amanda and amanda.
Now, we add a SVR4_PKGNAME and use amacl for amanda-client and amase for
amanda-server.
All svr4 packages also have a vendor tag, so we have to reserve some chars
for this tag, which is normaly 3 or 4 chars. Thats why we can only use 6
or 5 chars for SVR4_PKGNAME. I used 5 for all the packages, to give the
vendor tag enough room.
All p5-* packages and a few other packages have now a SVR4_PKGNAME.
foo-* to foo-[0-9]*. This is to cause the dependencies to match only the
packages whose base package name is "foo", and not those named "foo-bar".
A concrete example is p5-Net-* matching p5-Net-DNS as well as p5-Net. Also
change dependency examples in Packages.txt to reflect this.
first component is now a package name+version/pattern, no more
executable/patchname/whatnot.
While there, introduce BUILD_USES_MSGFMT as shorthand to pull in
devel/gettext unless /usr/bin/msgfmt exists (i.e. on post-1.5 -current).
Patch by Alistair Crooks <agc@netbsd.org>
- New Linux libpcap implementation, which, in 2.2 and later
kernels, uses PF_PACKET sockets and supports kernel packet
filtering (if compiled into the kernel), and supports the "any"
device for capturing on all interfaces. Cleans up promiscuous
mode better on pre-2.2 kernels, and has various other fixes
(handles 2.4 ARPHRD_IEEE802_TR, handles ISDN devices better,
doesn't show duplicate packets on loopback interface, etc.).
- Fixed HP-UX libpcap implementation to correctly get the PPA for
an interface, to allow interfaces to be opened by interface name.
- libpcap savefiles have system-independent link-layer type values
in the header, rather than sometimes platform-dependent DLT_
values, to make it easier to exchange capture files between
different OSes.
- Non-standard capture files produced by some Linux tcpdumps, e.g.
the one from Red Hat Linux 6.2 and later, can now be read.
- Updated autoconf stock files.
- Filter expressions can filter on VLAN IDs and various OSI
protocols, and work on Token Ring (with non-source-routed
packets).
- "pcap_open_dead()" added to allow compiling filter expressions
to pcap code without opening a capture device or capture file.
- Header files fixed to allow use in C++ programs.
- Removed dependancy on native headers for packet layout.
Removed Linux specific headers that were shipped.
- Security fixes: Strcpy replaced with strlcpy, sprintf replaced
with snprintf.
- Fixed bug that could cause subsequent "pcap_compile()"s to fail
erroneously after one compile failed.
- Assorted other bug fixes.
- README.aix and README.linux files added to describe
platform-specific issues.
- "getifaddrs()" rather than SIOCGIFCONF used, if available.
Solaris, narrow down the platforms, and use specific inclusion rather
than disclusion: mark them as ONLY_FOR_PLATFORM=SunOS-*-*, rather
than NOT_FOR_PLATFORM=NetBSD-*-*.
