My driver was a 8139too.

As SNORT is a security related tool (active security) and the threats
are changing from time to time the signatures have to be up to date as
well as the tool itself.

What about considering outdated security tools as hazardous to the
system's security? Taking this point of view, why not distributing
updated versions via debian-security?
