I noticed two things:
* conntrackd isn´t release regarding to changelog.
* see attached two patches which fix the INSTALL file regarding
the dependency two libnfnetlink and libnetfilter_conntrack and
additionally remove some whitespaces.
(Apply the whitespace patch first.)

I´ll give the manpage a shot.

thanks for the new release.
I noticed a small glitch with keyword case in the persistent mode example
config files:
examples/sync/persistent/node1/conntrackd.conf
mode PERSISTENT {
examples/sync/persistent/node2/conntrackd.conf
Mode PERSISTENT {
The Mode keyword is case sensitive which will lead to the following error
when starting node1:
Error parsing config file: line (5), symbol 'mode': syntax error
Also, to build conntrackd I had to patch two include files:
