[arch-dev-public] netcf and the libnl rebuild
Does anyone know netcf[1]? It still needs a rebuild[2] for the libnl 3.2 bump and it seems to be outdated as well (0.1.7 in our repos, 0.1.9 upstream). Ubuntu has libnl 3.2 patches[3] for it, but they don't apply to the upstream 0.1.9 sources. I'd rather have this handled properly instead of just blindly rebuilding against libnl1.

Seems like we need to build netcf with libnl3, since libvirt links to both libnetcf and libpcap (already built against libnl3). Also see http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=651033 . Too bad Ubuntu's netcf is so far removed from upstream. Can anyone make a patch, please?

Alternatively, what functionality will we lose if libvirt is build without netcf?
