conntrack-tools fails to compile

[t]

Hi,

I am trying to compile conntrack-tools on centos5. After
successfully built and installed rpms of libnfnetlink and
libnetfilter_conntrack, I get the following error when making
conntrack_tools:

I get the same results on 0.9.3 and the svn trunk 


any help would be greatly appreciated.

This problem was already fixed. Are you using lastest versions of
libnfnetlink and libnetfilter_conntrack?
