Hi,

ithink its a good idea to split netkit-telnet into two packages to have on client only telnet-package. The reason is very simple, telnet is the most time only wantet as a client, noone who wants use telnet for debuging remote smtps likes to run xinetd on the machine.


PKGFILE for the Client:

pkgname=netkit-telnet
pkgver=0.17
pkgrel=5
pkgdesc="A telnet client"
depends=('ncurses')
source=(ftp://ftp.uk.linux.org/pub/linux/Networking/netkit/$pkgname-$pkgver.tar.
gz $pkgname-$pkgver.patch)
md5sums=('d6beabaaf53fe6e382c42ce3faa05a36' 'd56497f2c6b96e8909ed57f1be19411d')

build() {
cd $startdir/src/$pkgname-$pkgver
patch -Np1 -i ../$pkgname-$pkgver.patch
./configure --prefix=/usr --installroot=$startdir/pkg
make || return 1
mkdir -p $startdir/pkg/usr/{bin,sbin,man/man1,man/man5,man/man8} $startdir/pkg
make install
rm -rf $startdir/pkg/usr/{sbin,man/man8}
}


PKGFILE for the server:

pkgname=netkit-telnetd
pkgver=0.17
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc="A telnet Server"
depends=('ncurses' 'xinetd')
provides=(netkit-telnet)
conflicts=(netkit-telnet)
source=(ftp://ftp.uk.linux.org/pub/linux/Networking/netkit/netkit-telnet-$pkgver
.tar.gz netkit-telnet-$pkgver.patch telnet.xinetd)
md5sums=('d6beabaaf53fe6e382c42ce3faa05a36' 'd56497f2c6b96e8909ed57f1be19411d' \
'c6e6ca4ba8e084be8ce2a170bebc17cc')

build() {
cd $startdir/src/netkit-telnet-$pkgver
patch -Np1 -i ../netkit-telnet-$pkgver.patch
./configure --prefix=/usr --installroot=$startdir/pkg
make || return 1
mkdir -p $startdir/pkg/usr/{bin,sbin,man/man1,man/man5,man/man8} $startdir/pkg
/etc/xinetd.d
make install
install -m644 $startdir/src/telnet.xinetd $startdir/pkg/etc/xinetd.d/telnet
}


the last is the orginal PKGFILE bur with conflickts, and provides. The importance change is the pkgdesc, its not realy usefull to cal it telnet client an require xinetd.
