Hi Steven, FWIW from my POV the workarounds I implemented in tcpdump and libpcap aren't long-term solutions, these bugs need to be fixed in time for jessie, and thus need to be 'serious'. I only added the workarounds to avoid having my testing migrations blocked by kfreebsd.
As things stand now, tcpdump can no longer use the pflog interface, and libpcap no longer has zerocopy support for live captures, making them considerably slower. These are noticeable feature regressions compared to wheezy. Fixing the headers should be pretty simple, yet the bugs have been open for weeks with no response. I get the feeling that you're downgrading severities to paper over the fact that there aren't any active kfreebsd porters left. But getting RC bugs off the Release Team's radar won't magically make the port healthy again. -- Romain Francoise <rfranco...@debian.org> http://people.debian.org/~rfrancoise/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
