Description Michael Mair-Keimberger (iamnr3) 2021-07-30 20:54:40 UTC
Hi,

I was initially looking into net-analyzer/snortsam to update it's EAPI, however found out that it's latest release was a decade ago and is considered EOL from upstream. The ebuild also prints:

elog "To use snortsam with snort, you'll have to compile snort with USE=snortsam."
elog "Read the INSTALL file to configure snort for snortsam, and configure"
elog "snortsam for your particular firewall."

This isn't correct anymore, since there is no such flag in net-analyzer/snort. There are some patches upstream for net-analyzer/snort to enable that feature but again only for older versions of net-analyzer/snort (which are not in gentoo anymore).
