Description José Romildo Malaquias 2012-06-15 21:15:08 UTC
I do not use IPV6 on my systems.

When emerging net-firewall/ufw-0.31.1 with USE="-ipv6", it fails because CONFIG_IP6_NF_MATCH_HL is not set in kernel configuration.

Probably this check should be enforced only when compiling with support for IPV6.
Comment 1 Sławomir Nizio 2012-06-17 13:32:06 UTC
It looks that it's an option provided only for backward compatibility and CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_HL should be checked instead.
The change in Linux kernel "netfilter: Combine ipt_TTL and ip6t_HL source" was made in commit 563d36eb3fb22dd04da9aa6f12e1b9ba0ac115f3 and merged with 2.6.30 if I was looking correctly.

The warning about unset option is non fatal so please ignore it until it's fixed.
