Hello, when installing iptables, an extra part will be installed when after executing
make install the command make install-devel is given. For the versions iptables-1.2.11 and earlier these were needed for installing patch-o-matic, for extensions. For the latest versions (1.3.1) these extensions are included at the source distribution and the patch-o-matic is not needed anymore. When using the versions before 1.2.11 there could be a remark about install-devel in the BLFS book 5.1. I don't know the software installed by make install-devel is needed by any other software apart from pom. Is there than this remark could be an idea for the later versions of the BLFS book (6.0) What do you think?
