----------------------------------------------------------------------
This libpcap release is a result of nearly six years of development
done by The Tcpdump Group and many contributors.  In calendar year 2025

one of the maintainers as a part-time fellow via their Fellowship [1]
program.

This release delivers assorted improvements in the following aspects:
the API, the build systems, error detection and reporting, input
validation, the man pages and other documentation, and packet
filtering.  This release introduces unit tests and refactors various
source code to facilitate maintenance and future contributions.

Concerning packet capture modules, this release improves support for
Endace DAG, Myricom SNF, netmap, and RDMA, it also removes any
remaining support for AirPcap, DPDK, Riverbed TurboCap, Septel, and
SITA ACN.

Concerning platforms, this release adds support for GNU/Hurd and
improves support for FreeBSD, illumos, Linux, macOS, NetBSD, OpenBSD,
QNX, and Solaris 11.  It also removes any remaining support for AOS
