Package: arptables Version: 0.0.3-1 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch For some reason, arptables insists that --proto-type is specified as a base-10 integer. Please find attached a trivial patch to make it also accept hexadecimal inputs (ethernet protocol numbers are often specfied in hex, not decimal), using standard strtol() behaviour (hex iff starts with 0x).
