Hi all,


I saw that net-tools-1.60 was from Oct 2011 and that net-tools-2.10 had been =
released in Jan 2021 so I had a look at updating it.

However, there are 5 patches applied to net-tools. I had a look at the patche=
s and the new source files are different at the locations=C2=A0 to be patched=
 but quite different from what the patches apply.

It could be that the files have had the patch fixes applied but in a differen=
t approach to how the patches did it. If the patch fixes still need to be app=
lied then the patches need to be updated as the source files are now differen=
t in the locations to be patched.

Either way I am not knowledgeable enough to be able to determine or do any of=
 that. Someone else will need to pick this package update up.


Regards,

Adolf.
