Hi, I'd like to ask if iptables-devel package is going to be patched by CentOS team to include all header files. Upstream provider still seems to ignore this bug, even it was fixed in FC5. We need to fix it to simplify automatic build of iptables/kernel modules. Thanks, David Hrbac
Nope ... we build what they provide ... including bugs/
It's not a BUG! You are servind missing devel packages too. So your strong oposition should be rethinked.
I wonder - you have rules and exceptions. Why do you simply do not put differencies ro the RELEASE-NOTES and join CentOS/RPMS and addons? Separate dir is worthless because you have yum and i586 kernels in CentOS/RPMS already. So this "rule" isn't working from the start already.
I suggest distro and updates only.
Then think about Extras, Plus and Contrib. This is really too complicated.
