Yes.

configure.ac
found_libmnl="no"
if (test "${firewall_type}" = "nftables" -o \
		"${enable_wireguard}" != "no"); then
	PKG_CHECK_MODULES(LIBMNL, [libmnl >= 1.0.0], [found_libmnl="yes"],
		AC_MSG_ERROR([libmnl >= 1.0.0 not found]))
	AC_SUBST(LIBMNL_CFLAGS)
	AC_SUBST(LIBMNL_LIBS)
fi
AM_CONDITIONAL(LIBMNL, test "${found_libmnl}" != "no")

IMHO this means that libmnl is required for nftables and wireguard.

Kind regards,
Petr
