[ITP] Inetutils 1.9.4
Hi group, I intend to package the new version of Inetutils, version 1.9.4. Package inetutils - category: Net requires: bash libgcc1 hostname whois cygwin sdesc: "Common networking client programs" ldesc: "inetutils provides common networking clients and servers, including the inetd super-server, telnetd and telnet, ftpd and ftp, talkd and talk, uucpd (but no uucp client), and syslogd." Package inetutils-server category: Net requires: bash crypt libgcc1 inetutils tcp_wrappers sdesc: "Common networking server programs" ldesc: "inetutils provides common networking clients and servers, including the inetd super-server, telnetd and telnet, ftpd and ftp, talkd and talk, uucpd (but no uucp client), and syslogd." As you can see, I kept the 'hostname' and 'whois' programs out of the distribution, and added them on the 'required' line, see: https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-apps/2015-07/msg00046.html I guess I could have just announced the update, but since I am adopting the package, maybe I should submit it for approval first: http://cygwin.boland.nl/x86/release/inetutils/ Good-to-go's are welcome!
