Now you can be able to pass output from pyrit over stdout/stdin directly to cowpatty.

Can you please submit this patch to the upstream developers of this project and add a link to the upstream patch submission and explanation of why the patch is needed in a comment in the formula file. Thanks!

This patch probably never will be in upstream because this project is very old and without a maintainer. Latest version is from July 03 2009 and homepages are not working. However this patch is absolutely neccessary if you want to safe half time of wpa cracking with the use of stdout from pyrit or other similar software and it is recommended way how to get cowpatty on Debian, Ubuntu and other distros. Unfortunatelly only references to that are on several blogs..

Thanks, fixed..

mikemcquaid: I am sorry I don't understand to which upstream I have to submit a patch ? As I wrote, this project has no upstream, no developer, no homepages. So I cannot submit it there. May I ask you for an advice ?

The formula has a homepage and therefore a developer. I'd rather we didn't accept this if upstream is now unmaintained.
