This file describe the process in order to build manually dhcp-probe package

Patches description
-------------------
Patches are located in debian/patches directory. These patches were created 
with quilt tool.

 There are two patches on man pages to fix "roff" syntax.

 The third patch is about a C syntax problem that could cause
 segfault on several architecture. This patch was submit by
 Dann Frazier <dannf@debian.org> and will be integrated to the upstream source
 code in next releases by Irwin Tillman <irwin@princeton.edu>.

 The Fourth patch is to adapt sources to several architectures (32 or 64
 bits). This patch was written by Laurent Guignard<lguignard.debian@gmail.com>
 with Ilkka Virta <itvirta@iki.fi> help in C encoding. Thanks for this help.

 Actually all patches were sent to the upstream programmer Irwin Tillman
 <irwin@princeton.edu>.



Patching method
---------------
 If you need to apply patches manually, there are only two patches (third and
 fourth) required to compile dhcp-probe source code.

 To manually apply patches, you could refer to man (1) quilt.
 Main commands are :
    - quilt applied
      List applied patches
    - quilt pop -a
      Remove all applied patches
    -quilt push -a
      Apply all patches from a series file
