                         tethereal.c 
  Removed files:
    .                    libpcap-0.4.HPUX.HPUXPAC.patch 
                         libpcap-0.4.HPUX.LBL.patch 
                         libpcap-0.5.HPUX.tcpdump.org.patch 
  Log:
  The Software Porting And Archive Centre for HP-UX now has libpcap 0.6.2
  binaries, so users only need to make sure they have that version
  installed in order to have Ethereal (and tcpdump, and snort, and so on)
  accept "lanN"-style names (i.e., names of the sort reported by lanscan
  and handled by ifconfig), rather than "dlpiN".
  
  Get rid of the patches to update libpcap, get rid of the discussion in
  "README.hpux" of patching libpcap and just say "get 0.6.2", and make the
  notes on HP-UX kernel patches to fix problems with capturing outgoing
  packets a separate item in the list of items in "README.hpux".
  
  Also update the error messages Ethereal and Tethereal display if they
  can't open a device and the error is "can't find PPA for XXX" to say
  "get 0.6.2" rather than "patch libpcap and recompile.
