Bug #40

[BashfulBladder]

I compared the 650-custom_netfilter_match_modules.patch files of a Linux Mint 14 generated file & a Mac OS X 10.6.8 generated file. There are a number of issues.

1. the Linux mint doesn't exhibit bug #40 - endmenu isn't pulled out by the patch whereas it is pulled on Mac OS X.

2. the newest error is complaining about ipt_LOG.ko not being built. Mac OS X 650.patch doesn't even build that module - the 650.patch net/ipv4/netfilter/Makefile patch-section looks completely different

So Bug #40 is probably because Apple is leaving us on the bleeding edge: diffutils 2.8.1, April 2002

Well, diffutils 3.2 didn't help in any way.

[BashfulBladder]

Ah, coreutils to the rescue.

GNUhead & GNUtail weren't enough: cat net/netfilter/Kconfig | wc -1 | sed 's/ .*$//g'

happily gives null: cat net/netfilter/Kconfig | wc -1
wc: illegal option -- 1

Simple enough fix: another symlink (5 so far: xargs, readline, head, tail & wc), so it can be handled on the build end.

Close bug #40 please.
