This directory contains virgin copies of the original distribution files
|
|
on a "vendor" branch. Do not, under any circumstances, attempt to upgrade
|
|
the files in this directory via patches and a cvs commit.
|
|
|
|
To upgrade to a newer version of libpcap, when it is available:
|
|
1. Unpack the new version into an empty directory.
|
|
[Do not make ANY changes to the files.]
|
|
|
|
2. Use the command:
|
|
cvs import -m 'Import of libpcap v<version>' \
|
|
-I SUNOS4 -I msdos -I Win32 -I missing \
|
|
-I ChmodBPF -I linux-include \
|
|
src/contrib/libpcap TCPDUMP_ORG v<version>
|
|
|
|
For example, to do the import of version 0.9.4, I typed:
|
|
cvs import -m 'Import of libpcap v0.9.4 \
|
|
-I SUNOS4 -I msdos -I Win32 -I missing \
|
|
-I ChmodBPF -I linux-include \
|
|
src/contrib/libpcap TCPDUMP_ORG v0_9_4
|
|
|
|
3. Follow the instructions printed out in step 2 to resolve any
|
|
conflicts between local FreeBSD changes and the newer version.
|
|
4. Bump __FreeBSD_version in sys/param.h as appropriate
|
|
|
|
Do not, under any circumstances, deviate from this procedure.
|
|
|
|
To make local changes to libpcap, simply patch and commit to the main
|
|
branch (aka HEAD). Never make local changes on the TCPDUMP_ORG branch.
|
|
|
|
All local changes should be submitted to "tcpdump-workers@tcpdump.org" for
|
|
inclusion in the next vendor release of tcpdump and libpcap.
