Description Steffen Schulz 2009-03-29 14:31:21 UTC
iptables fails to compile if IPv6 is not selected. Instead of adding this dependency, this patch modifies iptables to compile ip6tables only when IPv6 is enabled in buildroot.

It looks like a buildroot bug. Please set "Product:" field correctly.
Comment 4 Peter Korsgaard 2009-03-30 08:06:55 UTC
Is this patch sent upstream? Could you please provide a pointer to the mailing list archive / bugtracker ID?

Other than that it looks fine.
