This latest version of scapy has improved BSD and SunOS support, among
other changes. I've continued our DragonFly support, since we were
already carrying patches for it. (These should be submitted upstream.)
(This also addresses PR pkg/54550, submitted by Gabriel Potter of
scapy. Thanks for the reminder, and for all your work on your project!)
I have tested a pkgsrc build and scapy regression suite in the
following environments:
NetBSD 8.1_STABLE with Python 3.6.9
NetBSD 9.99.17 with Python 3.7.5
DragonFly BSD 5.6.2 with Python 3.6.9
OpenIndiana Hipster 2019.04 with Python 3.7.5
Fedora Linux 30 with Python 3.7.5
