Subject: [PATCH] add --with-kernel-includes configure option to libnfnetlink
Date: Tue, 20 Jan 2009 17:43:19 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4975FF27.5060008@pandora.be> (raw)
Hi,
This adds the --with-kernel-includes configure option to
libnfnetlink and updates README. This option allows compiling
with kernel headers not located at /usr/include.
Note that the --with-kernel option isn't implemented.
