etherape: Update to 0.9.18

  Overview of changes in EtherApe 0.9.18 (Sunday, June 3, 2018):

   EtherApe now is a pure GTK 3 application, with canvas supplied by GooCanvas
   (https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/GooCanvas).

   While GooCanvas itself is in maintenance mode, is still the simpler canvas
   library available and with an API almost identical to gnome-canvas, too!
   Longer term, EtherApe ui should be completely redesigned and modernized,
   but this is for another day.

   Changes summary:
     * EtherApe ported to GTK3 using GooCanvas instead of the obsolete
       GnomeCanvas.

  Overview of changes in EtherApe 0.9.17 (Thursday, April 5, 2018):

   This is a bugfix release, because a bug made 0.9.16 still runtime-dependent
   on gnomeui and other gnome 2 libraries.

   Changes summary:
     * EtherApe now requires Gtk 2.24

     * fixed a bug making libglade load gnome2 libraries

     * Sometimes node/links windows were freezing.

  Overview of changes in EtherApe 0.9.16 (Sunday, January 14, 2018):

   Several distributions are phasing out Gnome 2 libraries and EtherApe needs
   to update as well.
   Unfortunately, this mean dropping support for older distributions, for
   example CENTOS 5 and 6. At this time the EtherApe executable can still be
   built for those distributions, but not the project as a whole.

   This is an interim release, where the only Gnome 2 component is
   gnome-canvas. Apart of that, EtherApe is now a GTK2 application.
      Work is underway to replace gnome-canvas with another component.
   Documentation is now based on yelp-tools instead of Scroolkeeper/Rarian.

   Many thanks to Patrick Matthäi for packaging EtherApe for Debian and
   helping to keep this tool current.

   Changes summary:
     * require only gnome-canvas, not gnome-ui. Based on the work of
       Arch Linux packager bgyorgy (Balló György).  Thanks!

     * migrate from deprecated gnome-doc-utils to yelp-tools.
       Unfortunately this change rules out older distributions

     * updated German translation, thanks to Chris Leick

  Overview of changes in EtherApe 0.9.15 (Friday, February 10, 2017):
   The central node ring setting now accepts multiple node specifiers
   (separated by any combination of spaces and/or commas), and also
   now understands glob syntax, so you can put for example

     10.0.0.0/24, *.mydomain.tld, somehost.otherdomain.tld

   and it will do what you'd expect.

   There is now a compile-time configure option ('--with-c-ares',
   disabled by default) to enable DNS resolution via the c-ares
   library, supplanting EtherApe's built-in multithreaded
   gethostbyaddr(3)-based resolver.  This is a fully non-blocking DNS
   library and thus has potential for better performance while using
   only a single background resolver thread, but also means that
   name-lookup is strictly DNS-based, and will thus not take
   /etc/hosts, NIS, or other name services into account.

   There is a slightly backwards-incompatible change in the syntax of
   the node-position file used with the '-P' flag added in release
   0.9.14.  It now uses the same CIDR notation plus hostname-globbing
   syntax used by the central node ring setting (instead of POSIX
   regular expressions).  This provides simpler and more consistent
   syntax with essentially the same real-world utility, but may
   require some small changes to existing node-position files.  Some
   examples:

     Old (regex)           New (CIDR+glob)
     ===============       ===============
     172.16.2.[0-9]*       172.16.2.0/24
     .*.mydomain.com       *.mydomain.com
     fe80:.*               fe80::/16

   Additionally, each line of the node-position file may now include
   multiple such node-matching patterns (separated by spaces and/or
   commas as with the central node ring setting), so a single line
   might look like:

     *.mydomain.com, 10.0.0.0/24 3

   (to put all nodes matching the given domain or CIDR range into
   column 3).

   As a security feature (privilege separation), packet-capture
   operations are now isolated in a separate background process.  The
   new '-Z' flag can be used to specify a user to run the main
   (foreground) process as.

   Changes summary:
     * New option to use c-ares for DNS resolution.
     * Multiple node/subnets and glob syntax now supported for central
       node ring.
     * Node-matching syntax for '-P' flag's file now uses CIDR
       notation and hostname-globbing instead of regexes.
     * Multiple patterns can now be given on a single line of the
       node-position ('-P') file.
     * The columnar-layout ('-P') code has been changed to re-adjust
       the spacing of nodes within a column when the number of nodes
       decreases.  The 10-column limit has also been removed.
     * The background-image feature introduced in 0.9.14 can now be
       turned off via a preference check-box.
     * The background of the protocol legend is now black so that
       lighter colors (e.g. yellow) are more readable.
     * There is now an option to display packet-capture statistics
       from libpcap in the main window (hover the mouse over them for
       an explanation in the status bar).
     * The show/hide state of the toolbar, protocol legend, and status
       bar are now preserved along with other preferences in the
       user's config file.
     * New '-Z' flag (or '--relinquish-privileges') can be used to run
       most processing as an unprivileged user.

  Overview of changes in EtherApe 0.9.14 (Saturday February 06, 2016):
   EtherApe now users the system /etc/services file instead of its own.
   While this change make some customizations a bit harder, it guarantees an
   up-to-date services file.
   Note to packagers: /etc/etherape is not needed anymore.

   Central node option now undestands CIDR notation, allowing for a central
   ring of nodes, thanks to Zev Weiss.

   Nodes can be optionally arranged as columns, thanks to David Goldfarb.

   Changes summary:
     * autoconf updated to 2.69
     * fixed incorrect WLAN control frames decoding
     * fix UTF-8 encoding of several files, thanks to StrPt.
     * read system services file instead of EtherApe one, thanks to Zev Weiss.
     * fix race condition on exit, thanks to Zev Weiss
     * central ring option, thanks to Zev Weiss
     * tweaks to preference windows to better work with tiling managers,
       thanks to Zev Weiss.
     * static background image (Glenn Feunteun)
     * arrange nodes in 'columns' (David Goldfarb)

  Overview of changes in EtherApe 0.9.13 (Sun May 05, 2013):

   Translations and documentation updates, plus some fixes.

   Changes summary:
