Description Richard Hartmann 2010-03-31 08:50:06 UTC
The tar balls from March 11th were scheduled to be moved from beta/ to release/ on March 13th but the devs forgot to move it. They did so today.

As there are several fixes in this version, we have a high interest in this release.

New version format.
Comment 2 Peter Volkov (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-04-02 06:02:48 UTC
Thank you for report. Both bumped in the tree.
Comment 3 Richard Hartmann 2010-04-02 10:40:13 UTC
Due to naming mishaps, a build error on FreeBSD, a missing include for Red Hat & missing tests, releases 4.1.1 and 1.1.1 respectively are impeding.

We are not redhat, it's possible to mask this release on FreeBSD if bsd guys confirm this issue and I don't get what you mean by naming mishaps... Please, open new bugs for new issues and if required we'll pull patches from git.

That said, I know that current release has issues, but still it works fine here. Taking into account how long it took to release 4.1 and 1.1 we need to work on what we have instead of waiting for updated releases...

Closing since 4.1.1 is not yet released and this bug is closed.

Hello,
Don't you think libpcap-1.1-cross-linux.patch is redundant?

Can be easily solved in the ebuild and not patching and autoreconfing.
