patch

Hi,

if you've by any chance already noted that olpc-netutils is somehow broken in F-17 then I'm the one you should blame :-)

I updated net-tools in F-17 to upstream git snapshot and the ifconfig output is a little different now (bug #784314). Also 'netstat -T' is now 'netstat -W'.

I'm attaching a patch that replaces usage of tools from net-tools
with their successors from iproute2. net-tools have been
deprecated for a long time and iproute2 is the ultimate direction.
I already sent it to olpc-netutils authors (to e-mails from AUTHORS file) 2 weeks ago but with no response so far.

If you use the patch in Fedora, then
replace
Requires:       net-tools
with
Requires:       iproute
in spec file.

Thanks Jiri, will get to this as soon as we find a bit of time.

Comment 2 Peter Robinson 2012-06-06 09:29:21 UTC
Will land first in F-18

Comment 3 Fedora End Of Life 2013-04-03 19:37:41 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 19 development cycle.
Changing version to '19'.

(As we did not run this process for some time, it could affect also pre-Fedora 19 development
cycle bugs. We are very sorry. It will help us with cleanup during Fedora 19 End Of Life. Thank you.)

Comment 4 Fedora End Of Life 2015-01-09 21:58:24 UTC
This message is a notice that Fedora 19 is now at end of life. Fedora 
has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 19. It is 
Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no 
longer maintained. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now this bug will
be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '19'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 19 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 23 development cycle.
Changing version to '23'.

(As we did not run this process for some time, it could affect also pre-Fedora 23 development
cycle bugs. We are very sorry. It will help us with cleanup during Fedora 23 End Of Life. Thank you.)

Comment 6 Fedora End Of Life 2016-11-24 10:39:41 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 23 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 23. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora  'version'
of '23'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version'
