Re: [Announce] Aircrack-NG 1.1 (Now in Extras-Testing)
 

Hey MT,

Thanks for all your great work sofar, I am now using the iw and aircrack debs from this thread.

I have a suggestion for further work; can you look at including the man pages for the aircrack program. The ones I have on my system are of the Debian 1.03 rc3 aircrack-ng deb, let me know if you need me to upload them.

Much appreciated.

Stefan :)

Successfully tested this version on two WEPs I could find in a friend's apt block.
1. 31min ~52k IVs = success
2. 23min ~29k IVs = success

You don't even have to use the ones in this thread anymore - the latest iw in the repos (for armel, at least) will now work. (Unless you don't have -devel enabled, in which case, yes, directly downloading it is more convenient, but hopefully that won't be necessary for long.

Can you run this (assuming this isn't the man pages you're talking about already):
Because that might answer your man pages question. I don't know off the top of my head (because I never use man, since my first Linux experience was the N900 and the N900 typically has most packages ported to it without the man pages), but I think the contents of that directory should be all you need, they might just have to be symlinked somewhere. Namely from /opt/maemo/usr/man/man1/ to /usr/man/man1/.

Great, glad to hear it's worked for you.

Just a little bit more wait time guys, and I will get the right keyboard for my laptop (I actually had one arrive yesterday, but it turned out I ordered the wrong one...), and then I'll be able to get to my scratchbox environment again.

Thanks, my bad :(. I checked your deb (dpkg --contents .deb) and the man pages are included with the path they are to be installed in. Should have done that before asking the question :rolleyes:.

Re: [Announce] Aircrack-NG 1.1 (Now in Extras-Testing)
 

dpkg -L .deb also works. :P

At any rate, no need to apologize. I actually don't mind that you brought it up in this case because it made me remember that there's people out there who actually care about manpages.

Does symlinking the /usr/man/man1/ make the manpages work, by the way? And if so, how does everyone feel about symlinking them to the right directory to work by default?

(I think some people might actually MANUALLY symlink their /usr/man/... directories as a whole into /opt/ or /home/, which would mean I'd have to make sure the symlink add/remove scripts are ready for both possibilities. Though thinking about it now, it shouldn't be too much of an issue with the scripts I have now for symlinking the binaries....)

And we're live and in Extras!!!

Congratulations and thanks to everyone who voted and contributed in some way to this thread, to the people like Hawaii and Estel, without whom I wouldn't have gotten around to doing this, and to the original maintainer, Greg, who graciously accepted my co-maintainership of the package with him.

Wooo! It's in Extras!

Re: [Announce] Aircrack-NG 1.1 (Now in Extras!)
 

So I looked at the download stats you can see at www.maemo.org for the aircrack-ng package: http://maemo.org/download-stats2/ind...k-ng&os=Maemo5

One: MASSIVE spike when I first took over maintenance in mid-May.
Two: A very healthy albeit smaller spike from where it made it to Extras.

Both give me inspiration. I mean, I thought a lot of people where downloading - I didn't think it was in the thousands.

Congratulations MT ;)

A good work will always return back satisfaction ;)

Man pages worked out of the box here. Using MAG's mandb package here.
