Attachments: Patch that add Lua flag for wireshark-0.99.7.ebuild

Description Jaroslaw Niec 2008-01-16 20:04:02 UTC
Wireshark contains support for Lua script language. It can be enabled by adding --with-lua option to configure script. It will be great to add "lua" USE flag to wireshark ebuild to allowe user to choose if it shall be build with support for this script language.
I have updated 0.99.7 ebuild and added lua flag that depend on lua-5.1.1 or greater. Wireshark builds without any problem with this configuration.

Can someone consider appling below patch?
