Package: netbase
Version: 4.27
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch

When running tcpdump on the DSL interface I see a lot of connection tries
to 6881. These are all peers trying to pick up a bittorrent connection.
Please include it in the list, since 6881/bittorrent is very popular and one
doesn't have to look up the port anywhere if it's included in services.
Thanks,
*t

No, this is getservbyport.

No reason to add it then.
