Bug#642934: Sponsorship for aircrack-ng



Hello,

I have just packaged and updated a new version of aircrack-ng.

I have completely reworked the package. I switched to dh for
debian/rules and also switched debian/copyright to machine-readable format.

I backported the GnuTLS patch to aircrack-ng 1.1 and also I
cherry-picked a few other patches from upstream that fixed some issues
with the current codebase.

Among the issues fixed, there are included all the Debian bugs with
priority greater than Normal that were open against the last version of
aircrack-ng on Debian.

I have also enabled the hardening-flags.

About the injection patches: I simply removed them from the package.
Airdriver-ng downloads this patches from Internet, so this files never
were an useful thing to have inside the package.

About the airdrop-ng and airgraph-ng scripts:
* Airdrop-ng depends on Pylorcon libraries that are not packaged on Debian.
* Airgraph-ng seems to be still an early work-in-progress not ready for
general use. (Ex: it overwrites the input file when the "-o" (output)
parameter is not specified)

So I am excluding this files from the package for the moment.

I have uploaded the new package to mentors.debian.net

http://mentors.debian.net/package/aircrack-ng

The package is signed with my key that you can import with:

  gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys 965089CE6B95F882

If all looks ok, then I will need somebody to sponsor this package. Just
hoping this is still on time to be included on Wheezy.

Once it enters into Debian again, I would re-open the bugs that were
automatically closed when the package was removed and that are not fixed
by this upload.


Wishing to hear any comments.


Thanks!


Best regards!
