Hi there,

I got some reports which indicate that the ethereal binary in the 10.3 bindist is broken (the .deb is missing the ethereal binary itself). I haven't confirmed this yet, but despite this, I wonder: What exactly would be the process these days to get a broken .deb in the bindist replaced by a fixed/updated one?


Cheers,
Max


I guess you would contact the maker of the bindist with a request for an update (once this is confirmed).

Dave, Max (et. al.):
I just downloaded the 10.3 ethereal binary package and checked the contents:

~$ dpkg -c ethereal_0.10.9-11_darwin-powerpc.deb | grep bin
drwxr-xr-x root/admin        0 2005-04-22 23:50:14 ./sw/bin/

-rwxr-xr-x root/admin    66632 2005-04-22 23:50:14 ./sw/bin/text2pcap

By contrast, the 10.4 package has:

$ dpkg -c ethereal_0.10.9-11_darwin-powerpc.deb | grep bin
drwxr-xr-x root/admin        0 2005-05-22 21:49:23 ./sw/bin/
