0001323: snort will not install on centos 6 64bit
We are relying on the upstream package of SNORT. They only package the i386 version. Trying to install it on a CentOS 6 64bit give us this error even if libnet is installed properly:

Error: Package: 1:snort-2.9.1-1.i386 (PacketFence)
           Requires: libdnet.1

I will recompile my own 64bit version and retry.
No tags attached.

Recompiling my own 64bit SNORT packages did the trick. I will also compile the 32bit soon.

Looks like we will have to continue to build them.

Both i386 and x86_64 packages are now available in our repos.

Looks like upstream is not going to provide x86_64 packages :(

We can probably close this ticket as fixed then.

Let's close it. If we need, we will re-open.
