That's a pity. Besides the code being in a horrible state, this seems to be the only program of its kind (combining foremost's functionality with pcap files). Either way, it's fine if it still works, is it not? I have another patch here that removes the multitude of sync() calls that drive btrfs up the wall and another one that changes the way tcpxtract handles its open files in order to avoid hitting the max number of open files, which I will tidy up and file if this package isn't getting removed. -- Kind regards, Chow Loong Jin
