Bug Description
Missing declaration of struct nl_addr (exists on upstream, on file include/
I'm assuming this is a packaging bug since I see no reason why that file shouldn't be on the package.

Actually, netlink-types.h is called "private" in a comment inside that file, that's probably the reason why it wasn't packaged.
On the other hand, "make install" in the current libnl would install netlink-types.h. The same it true for the "version 1.1" commit.
I don't know whether it's right to install netlink-types.h. If users of the library legitimately need the size of nl_addr, then netlink-types.h should be installed, or perhaps nl_addr should be defined elsewhere. Otherwise, Ubuntu does the right thing and "make install" should not install netlink-types.h.
