Re: databases no longer support in snort

This was removed in  the update to Snort 2.9.9.0. The log message says:

"This is a HUGE bump, so look at the changelog on the Snort website !
For example, Snort does not natively handle MySQL anymore."

So this was intentional.

Otherwise, I am not sure what the point of your email was. Do you want
the options.mk bit re-added? Or are you just stating that it has been
removed?
