Miss Valeska Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Alright everyone! I'm compiling a program on Ubuntu 13.04, However, This program is slightly old, And it asks for the apparently non-existent ipt_conntrack.h library. Specifically, It gives this error message. In file included from igs.c:42:0:mark.h:6:48: fatal error: linux/netfilter_ipv4/ipt_conntrack.h: No such file or directorycompilation terminated.make[3]: *** [igs.o] Error 1make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/missvaleska/Documents/Netsukuku/netsukuku-0.0.9b/src'make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/missvaleska/Documents/Netsukuku/netsukuku-0.0.9b/src'make[1]: *** [all] Error 2make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/missvaleska/Documents/Netsukuku/netsukuku-0.0.9b/src'make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 However! It functions with the packaged version on Ubuntu 12.04, Which, Also, Does not function here. Can anyone help me figure out what I need to do in order to fix this problem?

FriendlyHacker Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 What happens if you run: sudo apt-get install -f If you have a different version of a library than you need, you could try downloading the .deb file, and do this to force the install of non permitted older version: sudo dpkg -i --force-all package.deb OR sudo dpkg -i --force-depends package.deb I'm not familiar with this specific software, but if there is a file missing, you could simply create it: nano linux/netfilter_ipv4/ipt_conntrack.h CTRL + O ENTER CTRL + X You might need to CHMOD the file for executing permissions: CHMOD +x linux/netfilter_ipv4/ipt_conntrack.h Another alternative is downloading the missing file and copying to the right location.

shirgall Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 In addition to what FriendlyHacker said, I assume you already did $ sudo apt-get build-essential May also want to apt-get build-dep on a similar package to your program, which installs all the dependencies for building it.

Miss Valeska Posted September 27, 2013 Author Share Posted September 27, 2013 I don't know of any similar packages to my program, And I wasn't able to find the library online. The library is intregral to the program, So I can't just fake it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taxcattle-nzl-lf078305 Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 Your program is looking for kernel sources. Can you provide more information on the specifics of what you're looking to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cynicist Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 The solution to this problem is to install the iptables-dev package. Sorry that this is a bit late, hope it still helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
