I no longer use ifplugd and request an adopter for the package. I am willing to sponsor updated packages. In case nobody ITAs it in a month or so, I will orphan the package. The package description is: ifplugd is a daemon which will automatically configure your ethernet device when a cable is plugged in and automatically de-configure it if the cable is pulled out. This is useful on laptops with onboard network adapters, since it will only configure the interface when a cable is really connected. Features include: . * syslog support * Multiple ethernet interface support * Uses Debian's native ifup/ifdown programs * Small executable size and memory footprint * Option to beep when the cable is unplugged or plugged * Option to beep when the interface configuration succeeds or fails * Can be configured to ignore short unplugged or plugged periods * Configure WLAN devices (on detecting a successful association to an AP) * Supports SIOCETHTOOL, SIOCGMIIREG and SIOCDEVPRIVATE for getting link status * Compatibility mode for network devices which do not support cable detection The software is quite stable and needs updation for various suspend/resume software scripts, for debconf translations and policy updates once in a while (there hasn't been an upstream release since 2005). There are a couple of patches in the Debian tree that should go upstream (I wrote to upstream and they indicated that the patches would be integrated but that hasn't happened). There are a few bugs that could do with some attention. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) iQEcBAEBCAAGBQJK3wTmAAoJENbfLHnbvsrc4rwIAJJlDjhZfISWHkkkPoFX+c7b zmTckODKYIJ617PTy1kNPGXR/njgEqqF3Wolk3AZRWhbusD+Oqp0HullPkhFlkvb WRCEp81YvuxyznUXL+Ll1kg6mMjDtUZS2Uo8wfYZBaKVVspkRleo9lGcWgAgJ/OW Fg/GFcvL1Qs7wPRnvKeroOsbJM7qdKviyluQToV0Qi8yU1j+rs6jnttbu8BATrqq SjIzbN/feEYt9sKCkDnPOhyBXUrYfY9GThI7RunCukAfDAHFSsuRswqGej+j3Fzu +tocAvDCVu3Od1tST9Y1YiEgynADCduO8beHUJ9lZnuGY63Ki6N/s4qttMgzmps= =oMHn -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-wnpp-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
