Description Asbjorn Sannes 2002-07-18 16:18:10 UTC
The router advertisement daemon (radvd) is needed to take advantage of IPv6
stateless autoconfiguration when using Linux as a IPv6 router.

You can find out more about it at it's homepage:
http://v6web.litech.org/radvd/

I'm not quite sure what category to put it in, but would recommend net-misc .. :)

All files required to add radvd to the portagetree

Fixed the radvd file (minor error), still contains everything you need to add
it to the portagetree. This obsoletes attachtment #2365 !!

Comment 4 Grant Goodyear (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2002-07-24 08:43:01 UTC
Holding on this one because I believe that current
Gentoo policy is that ebuilds need to have copyright
assigned to Gentoo Technologies, Inc. (along with
a "Distributed under the terms of the GNU
General Public License V2" notice).  I cleaned
up or moved a few things, so I'll upload my 
version

radvd-0.7.1.ebuild

Moved pkg_setup() stuff to pkg_preinst().
Added a LICENSE.

Tossing back into the pool while I'm away.

radvd-0.7.1.ebuild

Adds KEYWORDS (it should work on all platforms where IPv6 implementation works
seemlessly, ie. all) and changes copyright to be correct so that the ebuild can
be added, .. (ugh) .. It should be ready to be added, I have tested it on quite
a lot of machines and only trouble I have is with kernels that protect /proc
(which means you have to give it access to it, but this is very easily detected
by looking in syslog / messages which you should be doing..)

To add radvd to portage, you have to have both this attachment and 2377, this
obsoletes 2530.
Comment 8 Hannes Mehnert (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2002-10-15 08:38:54 UTC
tested, works great (on x86). 
is there a problem if we remove the written by header from the ebuild?    
authors of ebuilds are normally mentioned in the ChangeLog. 
Comment 9 Asbjorn Sannes 2002-10-16 15:12:01 UTC
Not for me, if it is added to the ChangeLog..  maybe I'll submit some more IPv6
related stuff .. hope it doesn't get forgotten as all the things I have
submitted  or contributed to (except for one mini patch)..

ebuild submitted (in category net-misc). would be nice to have more ipv6 
related stuff (feel free to assign it directly to me).
