beta test : mtr 0.82

Wull, this one is not my favorite. If you run it as a user :
Code:
urchin 2% mtr
mtr: unable to get raw sockets.
urchin 3% mtr ibm.com
mtr: unable to get raw sockets.
urchin 4% man mtr
No manual entry found for mtr.
urchin 5% mtr -help
mtr: unable to get raw sockets.
urchin 6% mtr -v
mtr: unable to get raw sockets.
urchin 7% mtr --help
mtr: unable to get raw sockets.

So run it as root ...
Code:
urchin 10% su
urchin 1# mtr --help

mtr 0.82

The tardist is made fine but the program itself ... I ditched it. YMMV.

edit : when I went back and looked, there were two mtr's installed - 0.82 and 0.69. So apparently the newer tardist did not update the old correctly ? It appears that neko_mtr could use some refinement ...
I overlooked the fact that there was an old neko_mtr, and started from scratch. I suspect you have the graphics frontend of the old one left over, since the new one can just switch between gtk and curses display with a commandline switch, but I'd say the incomplete upgrade is a reason to pull the package. Didn't you encounter the "loaders.cache': No such file or directory" Error with Firefox as well, or was that someone else?

Sharp eyes ! Yes, that was me. I have a feeling that the underlying problem was a terrible gdk-pixbuf that was in nekoware a while back. I'll try uninstalling the entire gdk-pixbuf thing and start over. Let's see what happens then ...
