patch-o-matic and recent kernel/iptables

[Leonardo Rodrigues Magalhães]

    Hello Guys,

    I've download latest iptables (1.4.1) and latest kernel (2.6.25.6). 
I've download also latest available patch-o-matic-ng snapshot, dated 
20080521.

    Unfortunelly i cannot apply POM patches over this iptables/kernel 
combination. Always i got is:

[root@f8 patch-o-matic-ng-20080521]# export 
KERNEL_DIR=/usr/src/linux-2.6.25.6
[root@f8 patch-o-matic-ng-20080521]# export 
IPTABLES_DIR=/usr/src/iptables-1.4.1
[root@f8 patch-o-matic-ng-20080521]# ./runme
Your iptables version  is unknown for patch-o-matic at ./runme line 333
[root@f8 patch-o-matic-ng-20080521]#


    Question ..... is there any place where i can grab most recent POM 
or that project is really frozen ? is there anyway of applying POM 
patches over this kernel/iptables combination ?

Consider patch-o-matic dead. A few projects that need direct patching,
such as xt_ACCOUNT and xt_layer7 provide perfect patches that make
runme unnecessary, and other extensions are available in Xtables-addons
which does not require any patching but builds as modules.

I have fixed patch-o-matic-ng in git. So either check out it from git or 
wait for the next daily snapshot and give it a try. The fixed version 
should work fine with iptables-1.4.1.
