Bug#736288: RFS: libnftnl/1.0.0-1 [ITP]

[Arturo Borrero Gonzalez <arturo.borrero.glez@gmail.com>]

Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: wishlist

Dear mentors,

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

* Package name    : libnftnl
  Version         : 1.0.0-1
  Upstream Author : Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
* URL             : http://www.netfilter.org
* License         : GPL-2+
  Section         : libs

It builds those binary packages:

 libnftnl-dev - Development files for libnftnl0
 libnftnl0  - Netfilter nftables userspace API library
 libnftnl0-dbg - Debugging symbols for libnftnl0

To access further information about this package, please visit the following URL:
  http://mentors.debian.net/package/libnftnl

Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command:
  dget -x http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/libn/libnftnl/libnftnl_1.0.0-1.dsc

This package includes the first Netfilter oficial release of libnftnl.

The library is the userspace, low-level, API to the nftables kernel subsystem.
So, for using nftables, you need libnftnl, the nft CLI tool, and a proper Linux kernel.
Note that nftables is supported in Linux kernel since 3.13.

[ Previous to the 1.0.0 release, Netfilter renamed libnftables to libnftnl ]

Regards,
 Arturo Borrero Gonzalez
