when running iptraf and I choose 'IP traffic monitor' then any of the interface choices I then get an error saying: "Can't start rvnamed; lookups will block" Checking the /usr/share/doc/iptraf-2.4.0/manual.html for rvnamed I find that, that error message is "probably due to a ban installation." I did notice that if I manually run rvnamed from the command line, then run iptraf I don't get that error message which leads me to think that iptraf just doesn't know how to find rvnamed.
Ok the problem is iptraf looks for rvnamed in /usr/local/bin and creating a symlink from /usr/local/bin/rvnamed to /usr/bin/rvnamed corrects the problem for now. I'll look into fixing the compile part of ebuild script.
all that needs to be done to fix is change the src_compile function to: src_compile() { cd src emake TARGET="/usr/bin" WORKDIR="/var/lib/iptraf" \ clean all || die "emake failed" } I'll attach my fixed ebuild script in a min.
The create new attachments link didn't work for me. (tried two browsers, one of which I had attacted files with before) I'll try again later but it's pretty easy to see how to change from comment #2.
iptraf-2.4.0-r1 fixes this issue and has been checked into CVS. Closing bug...
