I've just checked out the iptables sources and apparently this is in the works: https://alioth.debian.org/plugins/scmgit/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=pkg-netfilter/pkg-netfilter.git;a=commitdiff;h=001e02b30dbe8fc2dba820abae4f710de2114133 Hasn't been uploaded yet, though. The maintainer has decided to move the libraries back to /usr/lib. This means our current check in debian/rules which tests if binaries have been linked against libs from /usr will fail. We could either ask the iptables maintainer to keep the libs in /lib or exclude systemd-networkd from the check in debian/rules. At some point, shuffling the libraries around becomes a nuisance. Maybe we should only do that for /lib/systemd/systemd and eventually /lib/systemd/systemd-udevd. Thoughts?
