[opensuse-buildservice] installing ipsets on SuSE OS

20 Jun 2006

      Hi,

I tried to install ipsets (http://ipset.netfilter.org/install.html) on
my SuSE 10.0 OS.  I could apply the kernel patches and rebuild the
kernel (Step 1 to 4 on ipsets installation webpage.)  But when I tried
to build iptables (Step 5,) it showed the error message:

/usr/src/linux/include/linux/ipv6.h:19: error: redefinition of `struct
in6_pktinfo'

In file included from /usr/src/linux/include/linux/netfilter_ipv4.h:11,

                 from
/usr/src/linux/include/linux/netfilter_ipv4/ip_tables.h:26,

                 from include/libiptc/libiptc.h:6,

                 from include/iptables.h:5,

                 from extensions/libipt_ah.c:8:

make: *** [extensions/libipt_ah_sh.o] Error 1

I searched on google and found this webpage:
http://lists.netfilter.org/pipermail/netfilter/2005-October.txt.  It
said the kernel source from kernel.org works fine with ipsets, but
SuSE's kernel doesn't.  If this is true, is there any other way to
install ipsets on SuSE 10.0 or 9.3 OS?

Thanks for your time.
