Description Pekka Savola 2001-07-06 21:29:00 UTC 
IPv6 support should be enabled in Ethereal, as current libpcap supports it.

A patch for acinclude ipv6 stack detection bug is required.  Also, it'd be nice
to Require: libpcap >= 0.6 with this.

Anyway, the .src.rpm containing these is at: http://www.netcore.fi/pekkas/linux/ipv6.  
Please take a look.

Reminder.  This would be nice to have as tcpdump supports ipv6 too.
Comment 2 Pekka Savola 2002-01-12 18:35:45 UTC 
Now the only required patch is integrated with ethereal, and there's an updated (to 0.9.0) version available on the site.
Comment 3 Phil Knirsch 2002-01-24 11:00:32 UTC 
OK, updated in rawhide to the following version:

  ethereal-0.9.0-2

Should appear there real soon now. :-)

Read ya, Phil
