Description:   Opened: 2007-05-09 22:58 0000 
In the final instructions for installing snort you are told to run the
following to create a DB in MySQL:

zcat /usr/share/doc/snort-2.6.1.4/schemas/create_mysql.gz | mysql -p snort"

This won't work as the file is not a gzip file and you need to use the
following:

bzcat /usr/share/doc/snort-2.6.1.4/schemas/create_mysql.bz2 | mysql -u snort -p
snort

Reproducible: Always

The file shouldn't be compressed at all, preferably; bzcat is not a solution
for people w/ PORTAGE_COMPRESS="gzip"

------- Comment #2 From Richard Scott 2007-05-10 11:24:03 0000 ------- 
I totally agree. I was just pointing out that it looked to be wrong to me as
the two didn't match up.

My system has no PORTAGE_COMPRESS set, so what's the default PORTAGE_COMPRESS
if you don't set it?

I can't see it referenced in either /etc/make.conf or /etc/make.conf.example
:-(

------- Comment #3 From Daniel Black 2007-05-20 02:27:05 0000 ------- 
will be fixed to refer to bzcat when i add 2.6.1.5

------- Comment #4 From Daniel Black 2007-05-20 08:27:49 0000 -------
