Package: wnpp Severity: normal I request an adopter for the libnet package.
Unfortunately, upstream seems dead, there is a "beta" version available (but it would require a SONAME bump -- since the previous maintainer put a wrong -version in the autotools files) -- and I'm not a great C coder. Thus, I will maintain it in the meanwhile, but I expect someone to take it over. Chris, you're listed in Uploaders -- would you please take it? The package description is: libnet provides a portable framework for low-level network packet writing and handling. . libnet features portable packet creation interfaces at the IP layer and link layer, as well as a host of supplementary functionality. . Using libnet, quick and simple packet assembly applications can be whipped up with little effort. With a bit more time, more complex programs can be written (Traceroute and ping were easily rewritten using libnet and libpcap). Kindly, David -- . ''`.
