Installation instructions for nftables ====================================== Prerequisites ============= - standard glibc headers, gcc etc. - libmnl: git://git.netfilter.org/libmnl.git - libnftnl: git://git.netfilter.org/libnftnl.git - flex - bison - libgmp - libreadline - optional: docbook2x: required for building man-page - optional: docbook-utils: required for building PDF man-page Configuring and compiling ========================= Run "sh autogen.sh" to generate the configure script, then: sh configure [options] --prefix= The prefix to put all installed files under. It defaults to /usr/local, so the binaries will go into /usr/local/bin, sbin, manpages into /usr/local/share/man, etc. --datarootdir= The base directory for arch-independant files. Defaults to $prefix/share. --disable-debug Disable debugging --with-mini-gmp Use builtin mini-gmp instead of linking with a shared libgmp. This is useful for embedded platforms optimizing for size and having no other use for libgmp. Note: This decreases the debugging verbosity in some files. Suggested configuration options: --prefix=/ --datarootdir=/usr/share Run "make" to compile nftables, "make install" to install it in the configured paths.
