Bug 265460 – net-firewall/ipp2p-0.8.2-r4: iptables: match "ipp2p" has version "1.4.3.2", but "libxtables.so.2" is required

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description manwe 2009-04-08 16:17:56 UTC]

Kernel zen-sources-2.6.29-r1. At first iptables was unable to load ipp2p: 

/lib64/xtables/libipt_ipp2p.so: /lib64/xtables/libipt_ipp2p.so: undefined symbol: exit_error
iptables v1.4.3.2: Couldn't load match `ipp2p':(null)

But this I've figured out (hopefully) with patch which I'll submit. But after that, iptables throws:

iptables: match "ipp2p" has version "1.4.3.2", but "libxtables.so.2" is required.

and I'm unable to figure this out. Lib libxtables.so.2 is in the system (symlink to /usr/lib64/libxtables.so.2.0.0).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
# emerge ipp2p
# iptables -A FORWARD -d 192.168.1.2 -m ipp2p --ipp2p -j DROP

Patch for kernel 2.6.29

[Comment 2 Alin Năstac (RETIRED) 2009-04-10 22:26:50 UTC]

Fixed in cvs without rev bumping.

Actually your patch makes ipp2p compatible with iptables-1.4.3, not with kernel-2.6.29.

The patch pushed in CVS doesn't resolve the issue "iptables: match "ipp2p" has version "1.4.3.2", but "libxtables.so.2" is
required.".
I'm joining an updated patch which solves the issue.
