Bug#545449: ulog is OBSOLETED in kernel
looking into kernel documentation, I discovered that ebt_ulog (and also
its counterpart ipt_ulog (which loads fine) are both obsoleted by
NETFILTER_NETLINK_LOG (see below).
BUT, I could not find an alternative netflow probe based on netlink
sockets.
CONFIG_BRIDGE_EBT_ULOG:
This option enables the old bridge-specific "ebt_ulog" implementation
which has been obsoleted by the new "nfnetlink_log" code (see
CONFIG_NETFILTER_NETLINK_LOG).
CONFIG_IP_NF_TARGET_ULOG:
This option enables the old IPv4-only "ipt_ULOG" implementationwhich has
been obsoleted by the new "nfnetlink_log" code (see
CONFIG_NETFILTER_NETLINK_LOG).
CONFIG_NETFILTER_NETLINK_LOG:
If this option is enabled, the kernel will include support for logging
packets via NFNETLINK.
This obsoletes the existing ipt_ULOG and ebg_ulog mechanisms, and is
also scheduled to replace the old syslog-based ipt_LOG and ip6t_LOG
modules.
