I don't see any need to split off ft2nfdump (and at this point I think I'd merge nfprofile so it's all in one package).The split off ft2nfdump was intended to have a small and clean nfdump package without any other dependancies. I would not recommend to merge nfprofile. It's legacy and will get dropped anyway in future. Furthermore you pull too many uneeded packages due to the rrd depedancies for the majority of users, which do not need nfprofile at all.flow-tools is pretty tiny as far as dependencies go. With this update libnffile pulls in rrd dependencies now anyway so I don't see a point in _not_ merging nfprofile?
That's because of the way the subpackage works. Maybe a flavour would be better
and cleaner.
Because of the original Makefile used subpackages, I did not change that.
The librrd and those dependencies are only needed when building nfprofile.
Separate builds
with different ./configure options would solve that. Maybe I can fix that in
the nfdump
source to remove librrd from libnfdump and move those parts to nfprofile.
Yes - nfprofile is used for nfsen only and nowhere else. However, in future,
there should
be a new NfSen and therefore it will be legacy anyway.
Anyway thanks for committing.
