I don't think we need the BuildRequires, or the build time detection,
at all. Just

  #define NFT "nft"

in the relevant file and be done with it. We'll locate the binary at
runtime, same as we're doing with most of them already.

The Requires is still needed, of course.


Maybe we also want to turn the iptables dependency into a Recommends?
That way you will be able to uninstall it for a pure nft-based setup.

... at some point. A lot of stuff seems to still depend on iptables
today, at least in Fedora.
