Bug Description
iptables does not use dpkg-buildflags. Doing so is a good thing generally, and is currently necessary for arm64 cross-builds.
This simple patch fixes it. I don't know if there is any reason not to move forward from compat 7 to 9. It builds OK for me.
If the package maintainer would prefer not to then adding
DPKG_EXPORT_
-include /usr/share/
in debian/rules will fix the problem whilst staying at compat level 7.
This bug identically filed in debian.
affects: | ubuntu → iptables (Ubuntu) |

Actually it's not filed in debian because sid has 1.4.16 which is already at compat level 9 and solves this issue. A merge would probably be a good plan.
And in fact that patch was excessive. All that is needed is to change the compat level. Updated patch attached.
