by Serge Hallyn
I added nothing of value here, just turned the 'ncftool help' output
into a ncftool.1 manpage.

netcf patches for debian (v2)
by Serge E. Hallyn
Hi,
Thanks Eric and Laine for your earlier comments. Here is a small
set of 3 cleaner patches which are enough to make netcf build on
debian. (patches on top of git head). I will try my hand at
the autoconf magic needed for libnl support next.
thanks,

[PATCH 0/9] Ubuntu netcf patches
by Serge Hallyn
Hi guys,
following is the set of patches applied in the Ubuntu package. I was
sure I had sent these before, but they're not in the archive. I was
wondering why there had never been any discussion! Sorry about that.
thanks,
