Bug 26093 – packit-0.6.0c.ebuild (new ebuild/new package)

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Josh Lamontagne 2003-08-06 18:35:23 UTC]

Straight from the website: "Packit is a network auditing tool. Its value is
derived from its ability to customize, inject, monitor, and manipulate IP
traffic. By allowing you to define (spoof) nearly all TCP, UDP, ICMP, IP, ARP,
RARP, and Ethernet header options, Packit can be useful in testing firewalls,
intrusion detection systems, port scanning, simulating network traffic, and
general TCP/IP auditing. Packit is also an excellent tool for learning TCP/IP."

This version of packit requires >=libnet-1.1, which is masked. However, I fail
to see why it is masked since the nature of the libnet-1.1.0-r1 ebuild allows
the newer version of libnet to coexist with the earlier (1.0.2a-r2) version of
libnet. If there is a reason why it's masked, please let me know. :-)

This patch allows packit-0.6.0c to be built using the modified locations of the
files installed by the libnet-1.1.0-r1 ebuild.
