Raw Normal View History

ipv6calc is a small utility written in programming language C to manipulate
(not only) IPv6 addresses. Intentions were convering a given IPv6 address into
compressed format, convering a given IPv6 address into the same format like
shown in /proc/net/if_inet6 and (because it was not difficulty) migrating the
Perl program ip6_int into. Now only one utiltity is needed to do a lot.
This utility was also used in the past to extend features on
network-functions-ipv6 library, used by initscripts-ipv6.
To enable IP2Location support you will need to install C-IP2location first,
and then pass:
IP2LOCATION=yes
to this Slackbuild.
