/etc/protocols seemed so empty (and I realized a few protocols that are actually used are missing), so I created a patch to add a _lot_ of new data in. This has been adapted from FreeBSD with the following guideline: I don't change existing protocol names and numbers unless they're plain _wrong_ (idpr-cmtp, rspf) so I wouldn't break anything. If this is useful, I could perhaps do the same for /etc/services. That would be a bigger job though.
Created attachment 3839 [details] add a lot of protocols, change a few errors
Highly seconded! Esp. /etc/services.
Will be fixed in setup-2.3.7-1; thanks for the patch!
