honeyd-1.5c + libevent-2 - tagging.h:89: error: expected declaration specifiers or ‘...’ before ‘(’ token about honeyd HOT 6 OPEN

Any hope at all of seeing an update to honeyd to accomodate libevent-2?

Yes, I plan on making a release that works with libevent2, but as always I am 
super busy.

Any progress on this?
Ubuntu guys came up with a mitigation patch:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/honeyd/+bug/749247
Hope it helps.

Gentoo guys are having a hard time too:

The "mitigation patch" from Ubuntu reported above is actually not related to 
libevent2 but is associated with an issue when building honeyd in non-i386 
architectures.

I would be interested in an update to honeyd too for Debian, as this problem 
has been recently reported too. See: http://bugs.debian.org/651463

We've taken over maintaining a fork of Honeyd and fully upgraded it to 
libevent2. We've also made it capable of reading the newer nmap OS detection 
files and fixed a number of bugs.
