i just did a rather sloppy menuconfig and got the following:

tmp/.config-package.in:7156:warning: 'select' used by config symbol 
'PACKAGE_nufw' refer to undefined symbol 'PACKAGE_libnetfilter-queue'
tmp/.config-package.in:7175:warning: 'select' used by config symbol 
'PACKAGE_nufw-modules' refer to undefined symbol 'PACKAGE_libnetfilter-queue'
tmp/.config-package.in:7191:warning: 'select' used by config symbol 
'PACKAGE_nufw-python' refer to undefined symbol 'PACKAGE_libnetfilter-queue'
tmp/.config-package.in:7207:warning: 'select' used by config symbol 
'PACKAGE_nutcpc' refer to undefined symbol 'PACKAGE_libnetfilter-queue'
Warning! Found recursive dependency: PACKAGE_libX11 
PACKAGE_xorg-server-essentials PACKAGE_xorg-server PACKAGE_libX11
...

  i can see what the general problem is in that i selected a 2.4
kernel, but the Makefile for the package libnetfilter-queue contains:

define Package/libnetfilter_queue
  SECTION:=libs
  CATEGORY:=Libraries
  DEPENDS:[EMAIL PROTECTED] +libnfnetlink
  TITLE:=libnetfilter_queue
  URL:=http://www1.cs.columbia.edu/~angelos/libnetfilter_queue.html
endef

so that package should only be available under a 2.6 kernel, right?
but if you check out the Makefile for nufw:

define Package/nufw/Default
  SECTION:=net
  CATEGORY:=Network
  DEPENDS:=+glib2 +libgnutls +libpam +libsasl2 +libintl +libiconv 
+libnetfilter-queue
  TITLE:=nufw
  URL:=http://www.nufw.org/
endef

so no dependency on 2.6, therefore it can be selected even when one of
its listed dependencies isn't available.  is that what's happening
here?  and how does one fix something like that?
