[LARTC] [ANNOUNCE] Updated version of iproute2 snapshot version

[LARTC] [ANNOUNCE] Updated version of iproute2 snapshot version

[Stephen Hemminger]

Okay, it's been too long already, here is an update to iproute2
(ip, tc, ss, ...) utilities. Here is an updated snapshot.
	
http://developer.osdl.org/dev/iproute2/download/iproute2-2.6.X-ss040701.tar.gz

See the ChangeLog for detail but major changes are:

	* simple configuration (not autoconf) to deal with different systems
	* data rates in "tc" use communication standard K\x1000 not K\x1024
	* also, -iec option and knows about "kibps"
	* long style GNU options
	* works with "netem" scheduler
	* additional options on the ip command (to match ifconfig)

This should build and work on 2.6, and 2.4.

Just some quick points:
- maybe you should check for other executables. It turned out I had ip 
and tc in /sbin and they were first in the path so /usr/sbin/tc never 
ran. Maybe you can do a loop prior to installing and delete whatever 
"which tc" and "which ip" return until they return nothing.
- the "make" command incorrectly detected ATM but I have not set it in 
the kernel, and KERNEL_INCLUDE was correctly set. After editing ./Config 
and setting it to n it compiled fine in 2.4.23. I can post my kernel 
config if you want to investigate this.

well, many thanks for the good job! it works for me.

This is the job of the package manager. On slackware with upgradepkg works 
fine.
