Description Reuben Farrelly 2024-11-21 00:18:37 UTC
Currently the tree has xtables-addons 3.24-r1.  However this fails to build against the linux-6.12 kernel:


/var/tmp/portage/net-firewall/xtables-addons-3.24-r1/work/xtables-addons-3.24/extensions/xt_ipp2p.c:6:10: fatal error: asm/unaligned.h: No such file or directory
    6 | #include <asm/unaligned.h>
      |          ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
compilation terminated.


A fix for this is upstream in 3.27 which was released a day or two ago:

https://codeberg.org/jengelh/xtables-addons/releases/tag/v3.27

Please update the ebuild to 3.27 to pick up these fixes.

I was able to rename the existing ebuild 3.24-r1 to 3.27 to pick up the new version with no other changes required.  This allowed the package to then successfully build and iptables rules load.

Using the 3.27 build works for me with gentoo-sources-6.12.16.

xtables-addons-3.27 needs stabilisation.
