./devel/libnet, C library for portable packet creation and injection

[ CVSweb ] [ Homepage ] [ RSS ] [ Required by ] [ Add to tracker ]


Branch: CURRENT, Version: 1.2, Package name: libnet-1.2, Maintainer: pkgsrc-users

Libnet is a high-level API (toolkit) allowing the application programmer to
construct and inject network packets. It provides a portable and simplified
interface for low-level network packet shaping, handling and injection.

Libnet hides much of the tedium of packet creation from the application
programmer such as multiplexing, buffer management, arcane packet header
information, byte-ordering, OS-dependent issues, and much more.

Libnet features portable packet creation interfaces at the IP layer and link
layer, as well as a host of supplementary and complementary functionality.

Log message:
Mass-change BUILD_DEPENDS to TOOL_DEPENDS outside mk/.

Almost all uses, if not all of them, are wrong, according to the
semantics of BUILD_DEPENDS (packages built for target available for
use _by_ tools at build-time) and TOOL_DEPEPNDS (packages built for
host available for use _as_ tools at build-time).

No change to BUILD_DEPENDS as used correctly inside buildlink3.

As proposed on tech-pkg:

Log message:
libnet: Avoid looking for /dev/bpf to decide to use the BPF link layer.

It may not be available in the build sandbox, in which case libnet
thinks we're on Win32 and fails horribly.

Log message:
libnet: add optional support for generating the documentation

No PKGREVISION bump, as the default remains the same (no documentation).

Log message:
libnet: fix building when doxygen is available

This change always disables generating the documentation, even when
doxygen is detected. This fixes the build in this case, since the PLIST
assumes the documentation is not generated.
