Package: snort
Version: 2.7.0-10

While upgrading to snort 2.7.0-10, I was told that

Starting Network Intrusion Detection System : snort (eth0 ...ERROR: interface not available) failed!

This appears to be because /etc/init.d/snort uses this to check if an interface is available:

# Check if the interface is available
if ip link show dev "$interface" >/dev/null 2>&1; then

Unless I'm mistaken, this means that snort should depend on the iproute package to ensure that /sbin/ip is available.

Sincerely,

Torbjörn Andersson

Closes: 462423 462865 463020 463650 466073 466674
Changes: 
 snort (2.7.0-11) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * Make the init.d script not depend on the availability of iproute.
     (Closes: #463020, #466674)
   * Added a Recommends on iproute, as it can be used to improve the
     behaviour of the initd script.
   * Modify the init.d script to remove also the lockfiles for PIDFILEs
   * Move snort-doc to Suggests in the snort package and add it to snort-pgsl
     and snort-mysql too.
   * Fix FTBFS on GNU/kFreeBSD (due to unsatisfied Build-Depends on
     iptables-dev), thanks to Petr Salinger for the fix (Closes: #466073)
   * Modify src/snort.c to prevent it from showing a message when it tries to
     remove the PIDFILE. This fails in Debian since Snort is not running
     as the root user and the daemon cannot modify /var/run. The code is
     changed so that the error message related to not being able to remove the
     PIDFILE is only presented if running as root or writing the PIDFILE to a
     directory that is not /var/run. (Closes: #462423)
   * Po-debconf translation updates:
       - Fix error in Italian translation (Closes: #462865)
       - Japanese translation update, provided by Hideki Yamane (Closes: 
#463650)
