[Xorp-users] xorp1.6 fails to run on Debian Etch 2.6.18-5-486

[Adam Greenhalgh]

Aidan,

There have been some fairly significant changes in how xorp is run
since 1.4, and its back being a community project again. A number of
changes have occured to the stack. The current svn on sourceforge is
going to be the basis of the 1.7 release, it isn't a huge change over
1.6 , with the major change being the adoption of scons. Ben has been
porting some of his basic changes back from his xorp.ct tree into
sourceforge svn to fix bugs and a few other things. The idea is to
roll the 1.7 release fairly shortly because of the inclusion of scons
. 1.8 will follow fairly shortly after and be an adotpion of a lot
more ben's tree (maybe all).

My suggestion would be for you to try the sourceforge svn code on a
test box and see if that works for you, and help us iron any bugs out
in it before we roll the 1.7 release.
