Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Since xtraceroute was removed from Debian (after Lenny), I have really missed a graphical traceroute to see where in the world the IP traffic move on its way to its destination.
This is a new Java based project that does everything xtraceroute did and lot more: * Package name : openvisualtraceroute Version : 1.4.0 Upstream Author : Lew Lewis <[email protected]> * URL : http://sourceforge.net/projects/openvisualtrace/ * License : GPL v3 Programming Lang: Java Description : Visual Traceroute displaying in a 3D map Traceroutes are shown on the map, with details about country, hop latency and details about each router being displayed alongside the map. See the project page for some screen shots. The source is available from subversion at <URL: http://sourceforge.net/p/openvisualtrace/code/HEAD/tree/ >. One negative thing about the project is that it expect to run with root privileges to perform the traceroute. I guess that could be rewritten to use output from the traceroute program like xtraceroute did. According to build.xml, these packages are used by the program: <path id="classpath"> <pathelement location="${basedir}/lib/worldwindx.jar" /> <pathelement location="${basedir}/lib/worldwind.jar" /> <pathelement location="${basedir}/lib/liquidlnf.jar" /> <pathelement location="${basedir}/lib/jogl.jar" /> <pathelement location="${basedir}/lib/gluegen-rt.jar" /> <pathelement location="${basedir}/lib/jpcap.jar" /> <pathelement location="${basedir}/lib/jcommon-1.0.17.jar" /> <pathelement location="${basedir}/lib/jfreechart-1.0.14.jar" /> <pathelement location="${basedir}/lib/dnsjava-2.1.5.jar" /> </path> I am not sure which of these already are in Debian. Unfortunately I lack the spare time needed to do this myself. -- Happy hacking Petter Reinholdtsen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
