I need in my work to use the ns2 tools from http://www.isi.edu/nsnam/ns/ Anyway, these ebuilds work for me, if you want to put these to the main tree, feel free. (Based on skel.ebuilds and really simple ones, too). I cannot promise to maintain these, though.
Created attachment 77515 [details] Tarball of ns2-2.29 and nam-1.11 ebuilds, with patches. Suggested category net-analyzer
No tarballs, please... http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/devrel/handbook/handbook.xml?part=2&chap=3#doc_chap2

Created attachment 77516 [details] Ns2 ebuild
Created attachment 77517 [details, diff] Makefile fix for /usr/bin dir creation
Created attachment 77518 [details] Network animator (NAM) ebuild, for visualizing ns2 results
Created attachment 77519 [details, diff] GCC 3.4 patch for NAM
It seems that both of these were already in portage, just under the name of "ns", not "ns 2" (and when I checked, the search function borked). Oops.
I need to use ns in my work to simulate a network link with a bad quality, but I find that ns and nam are no longer in portage tree. Are these packages removed? Is there any alternative?
