-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.
