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).
