This is the real problem. The net-tools sources seem unchanged since version 1.60 (2001). can I use apt-get source un build from net-tools_1.60.orig.tar.gz ? Isn't this problem be solved in the debian net-tools package ?
With this new kernel, is it necessary/mandatory to change /usr/include/linux/* files ? if yes, how ?
