Bug 124510 – bootpd-2.4 (new package)

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Gonzalo Aguilar Delgado 2006-03-01 03:52:02 UTC]

Hello all!!

I found that netkit-bootpd is not pointing to correct bootpd application. Instead of this is pointing to netkit-bootparamd-0.17.tar.gz. This is not the correct bootpd server.

I created a bootpd ebuild that patches and emerges bootpd-2.4 correctly (I hope). 
I placed it on net-misc/bootpd in my home host.

I tested it only on x86 platform. I will try on my AMD64 X2 machine to see if it works...

But should be stable enough.

I hope it helps

Ebuild, patch and Manifiest file for this ebuild

Just untar into your portage overlay directory... 
I untared into "/usr/local/portage/net-misc/bootpd"

Please, don't restrict bugs... If you don't know what a particular checkbox means, don't touch it.

Also, never attach tarballs. All we need is plaintext ebuild and patches.

Reopen with a plaintext ebuild.

dragonheart: you were the last one to touch net-misc/netkit-bootpd, could you please have a look at these changes?

added 2.4 thanks Gonzalo. I wasn't keen on moving it to a new package. Maybe later. Thanks for the ebuild and patch.

Thank to you.
I'm pleased to help a little bit, jeje.
