Libnet is a high-level API (toolkit) allowing the application programmer to
construct and inject network packets. It provides a portable and simplified
interface for low-level network packet shaping, handling and injection.

Libnet hides much of the tedium of packet creation from the application
programmer such as multiplexing, buffer management, arcane packet header
information, byte-ordering, OS-dependent issues, and much more.

Libnet features portable packet creation interfaces at the IP layer
and link layer, as well as a host of supplementary and complementary
functionality.

Using libnet, quick and simple packet assembly applications can be whipped up
with little effort.  With a bit more time, more complex programs can be written
(Traceroute and ping were easily rewritten using libnet and libpcap).

Libnet is distrubuted under the BSD license.

-Remove devel/libtool15 and devel/libltdl15.
-Fix ports build with libtool22/libltdl22.
-Bump ports that depend on libltdl22 due to shared library version change.
-Explain what to do update in the UPDATING.

It has been tested with GNOME2, XFCE4, KDE3, KDE4 and other many wm/desktop
and applications in the runtime.

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

Fix MASTER_SITES.

Drop maintainership, since I'm buried in the $REALLIFE stuff.

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'.

Tarball seems to be broken on the main MASTER_SITE, so change
it temporary.

- Update to version 1.1.2.1

Add missing directory

- SIZEify

- Take maintainership

Reset MAINTAINER

- Update to 1.1.1
- Removed dependency on automake and autoconf
- Use PKGNAMESUFFIX
- Use CONFLICTS to prevent installation over stable version
- Install examples and documentation
- Use DOCSDIR/EXAMPLESDIR
- Reword COMMENT and pkg-descr, add Author tag

Correct Makefile comment typo

Add missing @dirrm

Add libnet-devel

libnet-devel will maintain libnet-1.1.x.  A limited number of ports currently
support or will require libnet-1.1.x in the future.  The API is not backwards
compatible.  Unfortunately many ports still require libnet-1.0.x and do not
support the new API (and may never support it).  libnet-devel will fill the
gap until the API change settles out and 1.0.x is fully deprecated.
