Bug#455768: paketto status?
The problem is that there's really no other library I know of that gives me such straightforward rapid packet parsing and transmission, at both layer 2 and layer 3, except maybe for libdnet (as far as I know). Have things gotten any better in the intervening years?

Is it OK if I schedule this work for late march, early april? There is currently an RC bug open about the libnet0 issue: http://bugs.debian.org/455768 In addition it will soon be removed from testing/squeeze: http://lists.debian.org/debian-release/2009/02/msg00502.html ASAP would be preferred, I don't know how long it will be in sid with an RC bug for before QA people decide to remove it from the archive. In addition the Debian maintainer has not worked on the package since 2007 despite a number of easy to fix bugs being filed, so you might want to take over maintenance of the Debian package too. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

To be honest I have no idea, the wireshark folks might have something appropriate though? libdnet is still in Debian: http://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=libdumbnet It is orphaned too though: http://packages.qa.debian.org/libd/libdumbnet.html http://bugs.debian.org/474128 http://bugs.debian.org/487129 -- bye, pabs http://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part

Have things gotten any better in the intervening years? Unfortunately I don't know the answer either but moving to libnet1 (1.1x) would at least keep it from being removed. libnet1 is pretty close but does have IPv4 and IPv6.
