compile problem with 1.2.10

Hi, I'm trying to compile 1.2.10 on a RH 7.2 box, running kernel 2.4.26. (The prior version is 1.2.9, no POM or anything fancy, just the default stuff..)

I get the following error upon running 'make KERNEL_DIR=/usr/src/linux' :

cc -O2 -Wall -Wunused -I/usr/src/linux/include -Iinclude/ -DIPTABLES_VERSION=\"1.2.10\" -DIPT_LIB_DIR=\"/usr/local/lib/iptables\" -rdynamic -o iptables iptables-standalone.c iptables.o libiptc/libiptc.a -ldl -lnsl /bin/sh: -c: line 1: syntax error near unexpected token `;'
/bin/sh: -c: line 1: `if [ -n "" ]; then for ext in ; do echo ".SS $ext (not supported, see Patch-O-Matic)" ; cat extensions/libipt_$ext.man ; done ; fi >>extensions/libipt_matches.man'
make: *** [extensions/libipt_matches.man] Error 2
rm libiptc/libip6tc.o libiptc/libip4tc.o

Any ideas?

jamie

The bug has been fixed in the iptables cvs. The new iptables release will be issued soon.

Thank you for the reporting: iptables-1.2.10 was compiled countless times, but the possibility you tripped over never came out for the developers :-(.

Best regards,
Jozsef
