That's not allowed. Firstly bulk builds are done on systems with no net
access for the build user (and it's recommended that you do that too,
with PORTS_PRIVSEP=Yes in mk.conf and the default pf rules to block
_pbuild), and secondly PKGNAME needs updating if the contents change.

arp-scan uses vendor listings so in order to update them I've arranged
a subpackage there and occasionally update them. You can depend on
net/arp-scan,-mac which gives various files:

/usr/local/share/arp-scan/ieee-oui.txt - full list, includes MA-L MA-M MA-S vendors
as well as the usual IAB (up to 48 bits of vendor id), simple MAC<tab>vendor
format

/var/arpwatch/ethercodes.dat - only IAB (24 bit), in the old arpwatch
format

/usr/local/share/mac-vendor/aircrack-oui.txt - only IAB (24-bit), in aircrack format

/usr/local/share/mac-vendor/iab.csv
/usr/local/share/mac-vendor/ma-l.csv
/usr/local/share/mac-vendor/ma-m.csv
/usr/local/share/mac-vendor/ma-s.csv - original files from upstream,
including addresses

/usr/local/share/mac-vendor/unofficial.csv - a few specials (qenu, carp,
etc)


Ideally if you can handle the variable 24-48 bit IDs please have it use
/usr/local/share/arp-scan/ieee-oui.txt directly.


: daemon="${TRUEPREFIX}/sbin/neighbot"
: daemon_flags="-d -u _neighbot"

-d is "daemonize", right? you want

daemon="${TRUEPREFIX}/sbin/neighbot -d"
daemon_flags="-u _neighbot"

and don't use rc_bg.

: rc_pre() {
: 	mkdir -p ${LOCALSTATEDIR}/neighbot
: 	chown _neighbot:_neighbot ${LOCALSTATEDIR}/neighbot
: }

other ports use install here
