make error with iptables 1.2.11

[Chamara Gunaratne]

Hello All,
I am trying to make and install ip_tables and I am getting an error when 
running make. I am running SuSE 8.2 with kenel release 2.4.26 and I have 
patched the kernel using patch-o-matic. The command I gave and the output I 
got is:

iptables-1.2.11> make KERNEL_DIR=/usr/src/linux-2.4.26/
Making dependencies: please wait...
Something wrong... deleting dependencies.
make: *** [../ipset/libipt_set.h] Error 1

I would greatly appreciate it if somebody can shop me what I am doing wrong 
here. Thanks !

What happens if you try a simple build of 1.2.11 without applying p-o-m first?

It would be good to know whether the error is in stock netfilter, or being 
caused by the patches you've applied.

Hi, I attempted to build ip_tables again with a stock 2.4.26 kernel source 
and un-modified ip_tables source. And I am getting the same error.

Okay - that narrows it down.   Anyone else here have experience with kernel 
2.4.26 and iptables 1.2.11?   I can't offer any advice on this one...

The difference between theory and practice is that in theory there is no 
difference, whereas in practice there is.

Hi, I tried building an earlier version of ip_tables to see what happens; 
1.2.10 with kernel release 2.4.24 and I got the same kind of error message. 
Is there some configuration option that I can give to get a more detailed 
description of what is wrong ? Thank you.

iptables-1.2.10> make KERNEL_DIR=/usr/src/linux-2.4.24/
Making dependencies: please wait...
Something wrong... deleting dependencies.
make: *** [../linux/autoconf.h] Error 1

I have 2.4.26 and iptables 1.2.11. I patched kernel and iptables
sources with latest pom-ng and then succesfully  builded both. I'm using
Slackware Linux with gcc 3.3.4. Here is step by step how I make this
things works ;)

1. Get kernel 2.4.26 sources, and decompress it to
/usr/src/linux-2.4.26

2. Make a symbolic link
#ln -s /usr/src/linux-2.4.26 linux

3. Get iptables sources
#wget http://www.iptables.org/files/iptables-1.2.11.tar.bz2
and decompress it to /usr/src/iptables-1.2.11

4. Make a symbolic link
#ln -s /usr/src/iptables-1.2.11 iptables

5. Get lates p-o-m-ng
#wget http://www.netfilter.org/files/patch-o-matic-ng-20040621.tar.bz2
and decompress it to /usr/src/patch-o-matic-ng-20040621

6. cd /usr/src/patch-o-matic-ng-20040621

7. Now patch your sources with any extensions you want (i suggest you
to choose only what your realy need). For example:
#KERNEL_DIR=/usr/src/linux ./runme string
#KERNEL_DIR=/usr/src/linux ./runme CONNMARK
...

8. And now the most important step ;)
#cd /usr/src/iptables
#make BINDIR=/sbin LIBDIR=/usr/lib
#make BINDIR=/sbin LIBDIR=/usr/lib install

9. If everything is fine, you can build your kernel.
10. If not ... maybe try older (or newer) version of gcc.

I hope this will help you.

(Sorry for my poooooore english :)

Thank you, what you have suggested worked. It looks like I needed to give 
the kernel directory as /usr/src/linux for make to work correctly. Thanks 
again :-)
