Dear G, I followed most of your advice, and just uploaded to mentors. I didn't package ipset because: - Almost dead upstream. There're a few questions and pull request is pending on github for years. - I cannot compile by the steps described in upstream's INSTALL file. It failed on linking. - Current embedded library just works, because shadowsocks-libev's upstream has modified this library to improve compatibility on multi-platform. I hope you or other DD can sponsor this two packages, because my usual sponsor is quite busy. Thanks for your understanding! Cheers, -- Roger Shimizu, GMT +9 Tokyo PGP/GPG: 17B3ACB1
