Guillaume, All,

On 2020-06-24 14:17 +0200, Guillaume W. Bres spake thusly:
> libnids can be built against an existing libnet lib,
> take advantage of that.
> 
> Unfortunately, pkg-config is not available for libnet,
> so configure --with-libnet is our only option at the
> moment.
> 
> --with-libnet expects a build directory,
> not an installation path like in our context.
> We use --with-libnet=yes to skip tests that would fail.
> In this situation, 'LIBNET' goes undefined, so we
> need to define it ourselves.
> This works because we make sure -lnet is installed
> prior anything related to libnids.

I've reordered the options in a more logical way. Additionally, when an
assignment (or any other statement) fits on a 80-char line, we don't
split it on multiple lines, so I;ve changed to:

    LIBNIDS_CONF_OPTS += --enable-libnet --with-libnet=yes LNETLIB=-lnet

and applied to master, thanks.

Yann E. MORIN.
