In a minimal sid schroot:
# apt-get install libnftnl0
[...]
The following NEW packages will be installed:
libjansson4 libmnl0 libmxml1 libnftnl0
Need to get 125 kB of archives.
After this operation, 472 kB of additional disk space will be used.
# apt-get install iptables
[...]
The following NEW packages will be installed:
iptables libnfnetlink0 libxtables10
Need to get 358 kB of archives.
After this operation, 3818 kB of additional disk space will be used.
So getting libiptc it's a whole magnitude bigger.
