Changes: A proper version of the iptables headers (from 1.3.1) is now included. The revision file is set in m_ipt. action_util naming in mirred was fixed. ll_init_map is no longer called in mirred. Warnings are given about wildcard deletions and IFA_ADDRESS is provided upon deletions to enforce prefix length validation for IPv4. Netlink message alignment was fixed for when the last routing attribute added has a data length not aligned to RTA_ALIGNTO. Support for IPv6 xfrm allocspi and monitor were added.

Nice alternative to the rather useless Debian only link if you don't use Debian!
Compiling iproute2
I'm the newbies in linux
I'm using slackware 9.1 eith kernel 2.4.22, when i compile iproute2-2.4.7 showing the error like this
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/iproute2/lib'
gcc -D_GNU_SOURCE -O2 -Wstrict-prototypes -Wall -Werror -g -I../include-glibc -include ../include-glibc/glibc-bugs.h -I/usr/src/linux/include -I../include -DRESOLVE_HOSTNAMES -c -o ll_map.o ll_map.c
In file included from ../include-glibc/netinet/in.h:7,
from ll_map.c:19:
/usr/src/linux/include/linux/in.h:140: field `gr_group' has incomplete type
/usr/src/linux/include/linux/in.h:141: confused by earlier errors, bailing out
make[1]: *** [ll_map.o] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/iproute2/lib'
make: *** [all] Error 2
What's the problem?
Re: compiling in/for Linux 2.6
Never mind, it works now.
compiling in/for Linux 2.6
Has anyone gotten iproute2 to compile against a 2.6.0-testX kernel? I get various errors about structs in device.h not being defined. It's not clear if there's a simple fix for this. I believe that this has been the case since Linux 2.5.70 or thereabouts.
If iproute wont compile in recent linux
You need to remove (or comment out) this line from lib/ll_proto.c:
__PF(ECHO,echo)
in my version, this was on line 36.
The ETH_P_ECHO constant was removed some time ago and the default code will not compile with that line included.
