Hello Sergio,



No problem.  However, the "License:" still doesn't reflect the license
> of the software.  According to LICENSE:
>
>   We provide this software under a slightly modified version of the
>   Apache Software License. The only changes to the document were the
>   replacement of "Apache" with "Pcapy" and "Apache Software Foundation"
>   with "CORE Security Technologies". Feel free to compare the resulting
>   document to the official Apache license.
>
>   The `Apache Software License' is an Open Source Initiative Approved
>   License.
>
> Therefore, I think a better value for the field would be:
>
>   License: Apache with Pcapy modifications

Ready!

Ok. I will contact Arnaud Fontaine to ask about it. I think it's ok for
now. In the next release of package I can update this field.

Thanks, but what you did is incomplete.  In order to create a new

Ready!

Thanks for your help!
Regards!
