DPKT 1.9.2 Feature/bug fix release

Hi All,

It's been a while since we pushed new stuff to PyPI, so we're pushing the latest stuff. Please don't kill me but there's not really a nice feature/bug list we can give of what's been changed.... but at least PyPI will have a nicer/newer version :)

DPKT 1.90: Python3 Support Release

The DPKT code base now supports both Python2 and Python3 thanks to the efforts of @kylekeppler @jonathanslenders @sunhao2014 and many more.

Given the large amount of work that went into the Python3 support there's bound to be a few wrinkles that crop up.

Please submit an Issue if you find a problem
The legacy/stable release is dpkt==1.8.8 (https://github.com/kbandla/dpkt/releases), please use this release if you have any troubles.

DPKT 1.8.8

This release is the 'legacy stable' release of DPKT for Python 2. This version should be used for the following use cases:

• You have a legacy script that uses a method that has been deprecated.
• You have a legacy script and it has to be protected against possible regressions.

To install this version:
$ pip install dpkt==1.8.8
