Description Thomas Masper 2020-05-15 21:03:05 UTC 
Configure phase fails because package 'libmnl' is not found.
After installation of net-libs/libmnl-1.0.4 ethtool install fine.

Reproducible: Always

1.check that you have not installed net-libs/libmnl
2.emerge sys-apps/ethtool-5.6
3.
Actual Results:  
Merge of sys-apps/ethtool-5.6 fail

Expected Results:  
Build and install correctly

Looking at Makefile.am looks like is caused by ETHTOOL_ENABLE_NETLINK section added in version 5.6
