Hi,

I'd like to upload the following update for libpcap in squeeze, it
addresses two bugs:
- #612803: device detection is broken if the bonding module is loaded
  because it creates an extra file in /sys/class/net, the upstream fix is
  used verbatim.
- #623868 (aka CVE-2011-1935): a security issue that was not serious
  enough to warrant a DSA. The patch is the result of several upstream
  commits that were backported to libpcap 1.1.1.

Thanks!

+Author: andy-1 <[email protected]>

+
+    Ignore /sys/net/dev files if we get ENODEV for them, not just ENXIO.
+    
+    Both of them are indications that there's no such interface, so the file
+    probably corresponds to something other than a device.

+Subject: [PATCH] Fix the calculation of the frame size in memory-mapped
+ captures.
+
+The old calculation truncated packets to a smaller value than the
+snapshot length.
