Is this going in slightly the wrong direction? Documenting the variables
may be a nice idea, but isn't the method of setting them by editing the
config.mk a bit off? Can't you just do something like:
HAVE_NFTABLES=true make
or
export HAVE_NFTABLES=true
make

As a suggestion, it may be useful for config.mk to have a comment list
of USE_* and HAVE_* variables that may be enabled in the right place.

mk/defaults/linux.mk has this:
ifneq ($(HAVE_NFTABLES), true)
HAVE_IPTABLES ?= true
endif
So, most likely you have to define:
HAVE_NFTABLES ?= true
early in config.mk.

Can you please specify what needs to be edited in the mk/config.mk

Remove the lines from the file:
/*-e "s:@HAVE_IPTABLES@:$(HAVE_IPTABLES):g" \*/
and
/*# iptables for CAT, or NFLOG, look, barf, verify*/
/*HAVE_IPTABLES ?= false*/
/*ifeq ($(HAVE_IPTABLES),true)*/
/*USERLAND_CFLAGS += -DHAVE_IPTABLES*/

There is an option to build with nftables that can be enabled. See
mk/config.mk

Hello dear community,
I would like to discuss an important matter with you.
Currently, Libreswan has a dependency on the iptables
package.
However, in recent versions of the GNU/Debian operating system,
iptables is no longer installed by default, and it has been
replaced by nftables. The developers of netfilter are planning
to fully replace iptables with nftables in the future.
Installing both iptables and nftables simultaneously may not be
practical.
My question is whether Libreswan is considering the
possibility of removing its dependency on iptables and
transitioning to using nftables. Is it possible to build the
Libreswan package from source without the iptables dependency?
I appreciate your attention to this matter and look
forward to
hearing your insights.
