iftop 0.17 net-mgmt =24

Display bandwidth usage on an interface by host
Maintained by: vd@FreeBSD.org

iftop listens to network traffic on a named interface,  or
on  the  first  interface  it can find which looks like an
external interface if none is specified,  and  displays  a
table of current bandwidth usage by pairs of hosts.  iftop
must be run with sufficient  permissions  to  monitor  all
network  traffic  on  the  interface; see pcap(3) for more
information, but on most systems this means that  it  must
be run as root.

• port moved here from net/iftop on 2004-02-22
  REASON: new category
  

Update CONFIGURE_ARGS for how we pass CONFIGURE_TARGET to configure script.
Specifically, newer autoconf (> 2.13) has different semantic of the
configure target. In short, one should use --build=CONFIGURE_TARGET
instead of CONFIGURE_TARGET directly. Otherwise, you will get a warning
and the old semantic may be removed in later autoconf releases.

To workaround this issue, many ports hack the CONFIGURE_TARGET variable
so that it contains the ``--build='' prefix.

To solve this issue, under the fact that some ports still have
configure script generated by the old autoconf, we use runtime detection
in the do-configure target so that the proper argument can be used.

Changes to Mk/*:
 - Add runtime detection magic in bsd.port.mk

Remove USE_REINPLACE from all categories starting with N

Update to 0.17:
* Added support for ppp interfaces on FreeBSD (and others using DLT_PPP)
* Added 802.1q VLAN support
* a lot of bugfixes

[1]:
  - force iftop to use its netdb_1thread resolver, instead of the buggy "fork"
    one which leaves 2 processes (holding /dev/bpf?) after exiting
  - remove a stale entry from MASTER_SITES
  - change comment and description to match iftop.spec
  - pass maintainership to submitter

Moreover:
  - fix the packing list when NOPORTDOCS is defined
  - unsilence the install
  - polish the Makefile

Drop maintership.

At Kris's request, back out the MACHINE_ARCH spelling correction until
after 5.4-RELEASE.

Assist getting more ports working on AMD64 by obeying the
Ports Collection documentation and use 'ARCH' rather than 'MACHINE_ARCH'.

- Utilize PLIST_FILES

- Add more MASTER_SITES

- Update to version 0.16

Say hello to the new "net-mgmt" category.  There are probably more
ports that belong here than the ones I have identified and moved in
this, first, pass.
