  Description     : configuration and management utilities for the Apple AirPort wireless base stations

This package regroups all the AirPort utilities written by Jon Sevy:
 - airport2config: configurator for the Snow and Extreme base stations
 - airportconfig: configurator for the Graphite base station (original AirPort base station / Lucent RG-1000)
 - hostmon: host monitor
 - ipinspector: IP inspector
 - linkmon: link monitor
 - modem: modem utility
 - portinspector: port inspector

I am waiting for the gcj-4.1 transition to be over to finalize the packages,
as the current classpath is buggy and the apps won't run (both native builds
and jars fail, both work with the classpath from gcj-4.1).

I am undecided on the jars vs. native builds issue as of yet. The bytecode
runs incredibly slow with kaffe so I tend to favour native builds right now.

JB.
