LARTC - Jul 2004 - [ANNOUNCE] Updated version of iproute2 snapshot version

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=1000 not K=1024
	* 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.

Minor tweaks to yesterday''s version:
	- ATM detection in configure is now by compiling not just
	  looking for header.

	- TC command already supports extension via shared library, but
	  changed the search from the usual LD_LIBRARY_PATH to /usr/lib/tc.
	  Made more sense to put q_ffoo.so in separate directory.

	- ATM (and netem) are built as shared libraries, both as an example
	  and for ATM to handle package dependency issues where a distribution would
	  like to build support for all schedulers, but libatm.so may not be present
	  on end user system (unless atm is installed).
