This was because of:

Not relevant now.

Still, it's wrong for flex to be missing from BDEPEND for releases. The changes encompassed by the attachment should be applied, even if the reference to this bug ends up being removed.

That sounds surprising to me. 'make dist'-generated tarballs should contain generated files and hence not require it?

https://git.netfilter.org/nftables/tree/configure.ac#n32 has the check only fail if the generated file is absent.

This is what happens here if I render flex unavailable.

checking for flex... flex
checking lex output file root... configure: error: cannot find output from flex; giving up

configure:4099: checking for flex
configure:4126: result: flex
configure:4164: flex conftest.l
./configure: 1: eval: flex: not found
configure:4168: $? = 127
configure:4170: checking lex output file root
configure:4181: error: cannot find output from flex; giving up

Then the configure script fails. How it manages to produce flex as a "result", I do not yet know.
Comment 8 Sam James archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2023-03-22 04:05:00 UTC
I've long-suspected something is off with AC_PROG_LEX because I've hit odd things like this before and never dug into it.

Let's just add the dep - people will have it anyway and it clearly needs it right now, even if only superficially. Plus we end up backporting patches which touch generated files often anyway...

    net-firewall/nftables: Always require sys-devel/flex for building
    
    It is always necessary for flex to be available, whereas bison is only
    necessary where building from git. Update the BDEPEND declarations to
    reflect this. Also, bump the revision number for the formal releases
    because --changed-deps isn't a commonly used option and nftables isn't
    a particularly large package.

OK. I'll report a new bug if I can add anything concretely useful to the aforementioned.
