Nope, at the time it was down. But since it is packaged in Debian and SLE11 I'd expect that it is supported. > [QUOTE] > Debian and Fedora have unmerged patches. > > I have patches to ip_offset handling (used for IP checksumming) to > --> fix memory corruption bugs <-- > [/QUOTE] > > Memory corruption bugs left unfixed for 7 years is a damn good reason > to drop reliance on a dead project. > But again, someone seems to be working on it now, so perhaps there is hope. I think that you misunderstood that. That patch has been included in for instance Debian. It is up to the distributions. BTW, I can't recall ever seeing that particular problem, nor do we have any bugs open for send_arp or libnet in our bugzilla. So, why ditch a working and supported library which works on multiple platforms?
