Bug#692734: unblock: ettercap/0.7.5-4



Hi,

 365 files changed, 23718 insertions(+), 14033 deletions(-)

This isn't something that can be reviewed, especially with the large
number of unrelated changes to (for example build system switch!) the
package.

The options remaining are:
* Backport specific fixes for the version in testing
* Remove the package

Could you please indicate if you wish to do the first or the second.

Thanks,
Neil
