Package: snort
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
Hi,
your package specifies a build-dependency on libsnmp4.2-dev (provided by
the ucd-snmp source-package). This dependency will be removed from the
archive soon (A removal was already requested). Searching through
snorts' files i cannot find a reference single reference on
libsnmpXX-dev and the upstream changelog also mentions the removal of
snmp from configure.in.
Attached patch:
- removed the libsnmp4.2-dev build-dep, and the '--with-snmp' option
from the configure call in debian/rules (as configure doesn't know
about this option)
- removes the libssl-dev build-dep and the '--with-openssl' option from
debian/rules (same explanation as above)
- removes the conditional 'coreutils | fileutils (>= 4.1.9) | stat (>=
3.0)' utils dependency from the binary package and replaces it by a
simple 'coreutils' dependency. As fileutils is adummy package
depending on coreutils (and it was in sarge) and there isn't a stat
package in the archive (sarge,etch,sid).
- remove the DH_COMPAT export in debian/rules as it it redundant
(debhelper compat level is also set in debian/compat) and this
triggers a lintian warning.
Please double check this and consider applying the patch.
The packaging fixed are all Severity: minor. But since libsnmp4.2-dev
will vanish soon your package will ftbfs then -> higher severity.
Regards,
Stefan
