>Description:
snort has had IPv6 support since 2.8.4. IPv6 is not enabled by default nor is it available unless you manually tweek the Makefile or build snort yourself.
security/snort/Makefile should be amended with the necessary logic to let the user choose to enable IPv6 if indeed snort IPv6 support is wanted.
The attached patch can be used as a starting point.
>How-To-Repeat:
Build security/snort using the current Makefile (CVS rev 1.124).
