RFS: bmon - Portable bandwidth monitor and rate estimator
Hi I'm looking for a sponsor for the following package: Package: bmon (2.0.1) Home page: http://suug.ch/~tgr/bmon/ Upstream Author: Thomas Graf <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> License: MIT/X ITP Bug: #286764 [0] Description: bmon is a portable bandwidth monitor and rate estimator running on various operating systems. It supports various input methods for different architectures. Various output modes exist including an interactive curses interface, lightweight HTML output but also simple ASCII output. Statistics may be distributed over a network using multicast or unicast and collected at some point to generate a summary of statistics for a set of node Package can be obtained from: http://bounty.schuettel.ch/~reto/deb/bmon/ Since this is my first package I am looking for any feedback!

I didn't want to create a library AND a normal binary package in the first step. Thanks for your feedback! Reto Schüttel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

RFS: (2nd try) bmon - Command-line bandwidth monitor and rate estimator
Hi I'm still looking for a sponsor for bmon. After my first try[0] I was asked to integrate some features provided by libnl[1]. Unfortunately I have no experiences with packaging libraries, and it looks like libnl isn't an easy one - I've talked with the upstream author and he refuses to maintain the soname during the 0.x developing phase of libnl. So I've come to the conclusion that at the moment it would be better to release bmon without libnl support. Perhaps somebody else is able to package it in a acceptable way someday (or I will be ;)). bmon itself is quite an easy and useful command-line tool. It allows one to monitor the bandwidth usage of local network interfaces. The tool can also run on several hosts, distributing the statics over the network by multi- or unicast. These statics may be collected on a central point and allow one to monitor all interfaces at once. It also provides an HTML output mode which dumps all the collected data into several HTML files. There's an example on my homepage[2]. The package is lintian, linda and pbuilder clean. I would be very happy if somebody could sponsor this package. The Package can be obtained from: http://bounty.schuettel.ch/~reto/deb/bmon/ Package: bmon (2.0.1) Home page: http://suug.ch/~tgr/bmon/ Upstream Author: Thomas Graf <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> License: MIT/X ITP Bug: #286764 [3] Description: bmon is a command-line bandwidth monitor which supports various output methods including an interactive curses interface, lightweight HTML output but also simple ASCII output.

According to the developer static linking isn't possible. Anyway, the feature isn't that important, I hope I can integrate it in a later version. Thanks for your feedback.
