Subject: Use of Kernel Headers
Date: Tue, 17 Aug 2004 13:40:54 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <41226D56.3080800@jg555.com> (raw)
I have been asked this question a lot of times, and I think it should be
asked here for an official answer.
It has been stated numerous times that userspace programs should not be
compiled against raw kernel headers, but iptables does compile against
userspace headers and breaks this rule. With the advent of the
linux-libc-headers package, should iptables be compiled against the
linux-libc-headers or the raw kernel headers since iptables is a user
space program?
Should patch-o-matic update the headers in the proper location,
/usr/include/linux/netfilter_ipv4 etc?
