1 Hi,

3 this morning I was trying to emerge ipset (in order to use with
4 sidmat) and got this instead of the executable:

7 >>> Unpacking source...
8 >>> Unpacking ipset-6.20.1.tar.bz2 to /var/tmp/portage/net-firewall/ipset-6.20.1/work
9 >>> Source unpacked in /var/tmp/portage/net-firewall/ipset-6.20.1/work
10 >>> Preparing source in /var/tmp/portage/net-firewall/ipset-6.20.1/work/ipset-6.20.1 ...
11 * Sorry, but you have to patch kernel sources with the following patch:
12 * # cd /usr/src/linux
13 * # patch -i /var/tmp/portage/net-firewall/ipset-6.20.1/work/ipset-6.20.1/netlink.patch -p1
14 * You should recompile and run new kernel to avoid runtime errors.
15 * ERROR: net-firewall/ipset-6.20.1::gentoo failed (prepare phase):
16 * Unpatched kernel
17 *

19 I am runnung Linux 4.1.4 vanilla and asking myself, whether this patch
20 is still be needed and whether there are other ways to accomplish what
21 ipset would do ...
22
23 I dont like the idea of patching the kernel in order to get some minor
24 user land tools to run...
25
26 Are there any other ways to acchieve the same ?
27
28 Best regards,
