There's been a request to have inetutils put back into the SlugOS feeds.
The existing version (1.4.2) doesn't build; bumping it up to the latest
upstream version (1.5) fixes it so it builds once again. Unless someone
objects, I'll commit the change in a day or two to bump it up.
Also, if anyone is using the inetutils package, and feels strongly that we
should break it up into smaller packages (inetutils-servers and
inetutils-clients, for example?), we should discuss that. My current
feeling is that this is a seldom-used package, and probably isn't worth
breaking up -- but it is a fairly big ipk (1/4 MByte compressed) with many
different utilities contained therein. If there are many users, perhaps
they might benefit by being able to install only the portion they desire.
