Fixed.

Locally fixing the Makefile.in.patch to apply doesn't solve the problem, just gets one a bit further to this:

==> Starting pkgver()... ==> Starting build()... -> Starting ./configure... Module version: 2.5.1-12-g3cdadee-dirty Kernel version: 5.10.21-1-lts (uname) ! Linux source not found. Don't panic. You may specify kernel source ! directory with --kdir=..., or try to install kernel-devel package, ! or just raw sources for linux-5.10.21-1-lts from kernel.org. ==> ERROR: A failure occurred in build(). Aborting...

Looks like the current Makefile.in.patch doesn't apply cleanly - might need to be updated with recent changes from upstream.

So, it looks like with the latest version of iptables, modules are loaded from a different path which isn't where this package drops the compiled modules (taken from an strace of iptables -A INPUT -j NETFLOW):

` newfstatat(AT_FDCWD, "/usr/lib/xtables/libipt_NETFLOW.so", 0xffffca7c1408, 0) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)

newfstatat(AT_FDCWD, "/usr/lib/xtables/libxt_NETFLOW.so", 0xffffca7c1408, 0) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) `

I think the PKGBUILD may need to drop the modules into either both paths (for more backwards compatability) or just the latest (xtables) path.

Now that binutils is fixed can we get this package fixed to build? https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=242682

This does not build currently:

With kernel version 4.14.88-1-lts and this package I get a set of errors from objdump and ld in dkms:

ipt_NETFLOW.o: unable to initialize decompress status for section .debug_info

Removing the CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO=y option in the Makefile works around that issue.

This compiles and works great on aarch64, could it be added to the list of supported architectures?
