Description Timo A. Hummel 2002-12-23 02:27:27 UTC

Hi,

emerging iptraf doesn't take care of creating two important directories for iptraf:

/var/log/iptraf
/var/run/iptraf

Without these two, users are bugged with confusing warning messages.

cheers,
 Timo

iptraf-2.7.0 does this since 15.12.2002

--- /var/
--- /var/lib/
>>> /var/lib/iptraf/
--- /var/run/
>>> /var/run/iptraf/
--- /var/log/
>>> /var/log/iptraf/

Seems that I should try the latest portage everytime. Good job though!

cheers,
 Timo
