Attempting to import scapy.layers.dot11 raises an Exception on
kfreebsd-*. Here are the relevant lines from the build log of
package pyrit[0]:

The attached patch mostly fixes this bug (at least I was able to build pyrit). On non-Linux system, some parts of scapy requires python-pcapy or python-libpcap, so you should also consider adjusting Depends or Recommends or Suggests.
