Package: iptables
Version: 1.3.3-2
Severity: wishlist

I am applying an iptables patch which requires that it reference a
patched Linux kernel source tree.  I changed the 
"kernel=" line in scripts/prep.sh to reference my custom kernel source.

When building the iptables package, it reports this error:

<trimmed>

extensions/libipt_connbytes.c:174: error: dereferencing pointer to

I searched online and found a user who experienced the same issue when
using kernel 2.6.14 and iptables-1.3.3.  His 
solution was to upgrade to iptables-1.3.3-20051023.

Please upgrade the Debian unstable iptables package to the newest source
available from http://www.netfilter.org/.
