The latest version of snort uses a new 'unified' binary format in its logging, and required a separate tool to read this format. The snort.org documentation suggests a tool called barnyard, but I suppose that there could be a number of tools to read this format. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: N/A Actual Results: snort can't read the log format Expected Results: barnyard (or something else that would read the unified format) should be included in the portage tree.
Have a ebuild ready for barnyard. Will commit it as soon as solar have time to watch over my commits (i'm a g.o. developer under probation).
