FTBFS: incorrect use of linux-kernel-headers

[Adam Conrad]

ebtables fails to build on all architectures with the following output:

/usr/include/linux/config.h:1:2: error: #error "Compilation aborted. Please read the FAQ for linux-libc-headers package."
/usr/include/linux/config.h:2:2: error: #error "(can be found at http://ep09.pld-linux.org/~mmazur/linux-libc-headers/doc/)"

Please investigate and resolve this. Build logs can be found here:

https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/ebtables/2.0.6-3

(The "builds of ebtables" portlet links through to build info and build logs for each architecture)

This is caused by a #include <linux/config.h> in include/linux/netfilter_bridge.h. Removing it fixes the bug. Debdiff follows.

Removes #include <linux/config.h> from include/linux/netfilter_bridge.h

[Daniel Holbach (dholbach)]

 ebtables (2.0.6-3ubuntu1) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * debian/applied-patches/fix-header.patch:
     Fix FTBFS (Closes: Malone #37426): Removed #include <linux/config.h> in
     include/linux/netfilter_bridge.h.

[Jérémie Corbier (jcorbier)]

Well, I'm so silly. The package has surely been rejected by soyuz as the distro in the changelog is unstable...

[Jérémie Corbier (jcorbier)]

I modified the diff to use a patch system as suggested by Daniel. Waiting for upload ;)
