(Sorry if this is a duplicate.  I've sent a message to the list twice
from my gmail account but it never appears.)

First, 1.17.x looks awesome with all the features it now includes.
Thanks to all who created it.

Second, I can't get 1.17.2 to build.  I ran make defconfig and when I
run make I get this:

...
  LD      networking/libiproute/built-in.o
  CC      networking/libiproute/ip_parse_common_args.o
  CC      networking/libiproute/ipaddress.o
  CC      networking/libiproute/iplink.o
networking/libiproute/iplink.c: In function ‘do_change’:
networking/libiproute/iplink.c:336: error: ‘IFLA_LINKINFO’ undeclared
(first use in this function)
networking/libiproute/iplink.c:336: error: (Each undeclared identifier

networking/libiproute/iplink.c:336: error: for each function it appears
in.)
networking/libiproute/iplink.c:337: error: ‘IFLA_INFO_KIND’ undeclared
(first use in this function)
make[1]: *** [networking/libiproute/iplink.o] Error 1
make: *** [networking/libiproute] Error 2


I get the same error with 1.17.1.  I'm building this on a Centos 5.3
box, where 1.15 and 1.16 previously built with no problem.  Any
suggestions?  Thanks.

Peter
