Hi, Commit http://git.netfilter.org/iptables/commit/?id=51340f7b6a1103b12d86ef488f7140406d80401e removed the default /etc/xtables/connlabel.conf file distributed with netfilter. >From this commit onwards, every call to iptables will show the message: cannot open connlabel.conf, not registering 'connlabel' match: No such file or directory Creating an empty connlabel.conf file does not really help, the message now becomes: cannot open connlabel.conf, not registering 'connlabel' match: Success In order to remove the message, we have to specify at least one label, for example '0 foo'. I don't think this is correct behavior: even when not using connlabel at all, iptables will print an error/warning in its default installation. The only way to remove this warning is to create a dummy rule. Moreover, I do not understand the reasoning of the mentioned commit: what is the problem in respecting sysconfdir? There are so many applications and libraries that use autoconf and can have configuration files in a place respecting sysconfdir. Finally, even if you do not want to provide a default file with the iptables installation, an empty file (created by the user) should hide the error message. What is your view on this?
