Template:TCPDump is a package that U can dump the packets from your network. This is also called/used for packet sniffing. Home Page: http://www.tcpdump.org/


If there is some reason you are adding a package and are unable to provide a brief description of it's functionality, please do two things. First, reconsider installing software that you have no idea what it does. Second, please use this template. It allows us to identify packages that need introductions without "hunting" through the wiki.

Optional

Creating the <NAME> User & Group

This is an optional section. If your package requires a user/group add this section to the page then append the table on the System User and Groups page. Below is an example.

groupadd -g [id] [name] &&
useradd -c "[desc]" -d /dev/null \
       -u [id] -g [name] -s /bin/false [name]

Configuration Information

This section can contain options that you may want to include when configuring the package, but should be left as a choice, eg:

--enable-someoption: brief description of the non-default functionality provided by someoption.
--disable-someotheroption: brief description of the default functionality removed by disabling someotheroption.
--with-somepackage=DIR:

Generally speaking, CBLFS packages are installed in the /usr hierarchy although there are some exceptions. Even if you passed --prefix=/home/fubar/stuff/CBLFS/is/really/awesome/some/package/version/5.0/hope/this/works to the configure script, please use --prefix=/usr for the wiki. Thanks.

Non-Multilib

Compile the package:

./configure --prefix=/usr &&
make

Install the package:

make install

Multilib

If appropriate, add this line:

This package does not provide any libraries so only one installation is required.

If package documentation is not installed by the 'make install' step, only include the commands to install the documentation in the 64-bit section.

32Bit

Compile the package:

CC="gcc ${BUILD32}" ./configure --prefix=/usr &&
make

Install the package:

make install

N32

Compile the package:

CC="gcc ${BUILDN32}" ./configure --prefix=/usr \
    --libdir=/usr/lib32 &&
make

Install the package:

make install

64Bit

Compile the package:

CC="gcc ${BUILD64}" ./configure --prefix=/usr \
    --libdir=/usr/lib64 &&
make

Install the package:

make install

Configuring

This section should contain information about the post-installation configuration of a package, bootscript(s), other files, creating directories. Omit this section if there is no post-installation configuration required.

Contents

You can find a script here that can be used in conjunction with InstallWatch to make creating this table reasonably pain free.

Installed Directories: /path/to/dir
Installed Programs: Program 1, Program 2
Installed Libraries: library1.{a,so}, library2.{a,so}

Short Descriptions

Program 1 is a program that converts pennies to dollars.
Program 2 is a program that converts dollars to pennies.
library1.{so,a} is a library that contains functions necessary to convert from dollars to pennies and vice versa.
