will take a look, probably in a day or two. I don't see any need to split
off ft2nfdump (and at this point I think I'd merge nfprofile so it's all in
one package).

Hello porters,
I am the author of the netflow tool nfdump and have noticed that the nfdump
port
for OpenBSD not only lacks some features, but also was not updated for some
time.
I did not found the port maintainer, so I decided to jump into the OpenBSD
ports
pond and would like to send my first contribution to the ports list for the
nfdump
package.
- Updated to current version nfdump-1.7.7
- Add nfpcapd pcap to netflow collector into main package.
- Add nfdump config file
- Unbundle the flow-tools converter into new sub package.
Most people won't need it anyway, therefore get rid of unneeded dependency.
- Remove nsel option. Most people don't have nsel flows anyway. the appropriate
flow output format can be configured in nfdump.conf. The nsel option has no
effect
for the code anyway.
If there is an active maintainer, feel free to use this update. If there is
no active
maintainer I would volunteer to take it over.
- Peter
Hi,
thanks for the diff.
Can you resend with diff -N? You have some new files that are not
included otherwise (diff -ruNp).
Also see the comment about SHARED_LIBS below.
Stuart (in CC) updated the package in the past.
Best,
Benno

these version numbers cannot go back. On OpenBSD, the library versions
are indpendent of the package version. See SHARED_LIBS in
bsd.port.mk(5). Do a minor bump if symbols were added, and a major
bump when symbols were removed.
