I was not sure how to go about it and the result was an empty package, which will work nicely as a fake package that will prevent other packages such as shorewall from being removed. I have to do this with ipsets as well. The command I used when I first installed this new iptables was: KERNEL_DIR=/usr/src/linux make install So the checkinstall variation I used was: KERNEL_DIR=/usr/src/linux checkinstall make install 'checkinstall KERNEL_DIR=/usr/src/linux make install' Had the same result, but it solves the main problem. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
