thanks.

I have committed it with 2 small changes. adding a hyphen to match our other py ports, and using the handy sourceforge notation.

When I broke the long_description into multiple lines, I broke the Portfile.

Here is a working Portfile:

                ${destroot}${prefix}/share/doc/${name}/examples
}

Furthermore,

I believe the appropriate name of the module may be py-pylibpcap.

Here's a patch

[chris.owen@…]

(From update of attachment 4961) This is unnecessary.

[chris.owen@…]

The port works smashingly, however, I believe it should be renamed to py-pylibpcap.

Also, the PortIndex will need regeneration.
