Denys, Looks reasonable to check for libxt as well. Please add a signed-off and append mine as well then send to Stephen.
BTW, I just finished compiling iptables 1.4.0 and _it is_ backward compatible - you just have to point to the correct environment variable IPTABLES_LIB_DIR; it seems to work. In any case, your patch is better. cheers, jamal On Mon, 2007-24-12 at 17:11 +0200, Denys Fedoryshchenko wrote: > Hi again :-) > > Happy holidays :-) > > It seems there is serious break in compatibility, but can be fixed by ugly > way.
