Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package "ebtables"

* Package name    : ebtables

It builds those binary packages:

Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command:

Changes since the last upload:

  * Non-maintainer upload
  * New upstream release
    - "v2.0.10-1 wish for ipv6-icmp and security" (Closes: #643594).
  * packaging update:
    * use debhelper & compat version 9.
    * standards to 3.9.3
    - "ebtables may use modprobe, so it should recommend module-init-tools"
      (Closes: #614919)
    * missing cdbs build dependency
    * add hardening to debian rules.
  * patchworks:
    + refreshing patches with new release

I wrote a few mails to the ebtables packaging team to know the status
but never got any answer. (Jochen Friedrich, Jan Christoph Nordholz)

I will follow the remaining bugs after upload of this package.
