--- Begin Message ---Package: iproute2 Version: 5.4.0-1 Severity: normal Hi there! The src:iptables debian package (v1.8.4-1) dropped the libiptc-dev and libiptc0 binary packages. The content is included now in either libip4tc or libip6tc. Such change comes from upstream. This package seems to `#include <libiptc/libiptc.h>`, which is fine; But I encourage to please update the build-deps to use libip4tc-dev instead of libiptc-dev. The header file is the same. Also pkg-config information should be right. The build should be something like: gcc $(pkg-config xtables --cflags) yourpackage.c -lip4tc or -lip6tc instead of: gcc yourpackage.c -liptc This may need reporting upstream. Let me know if you find any issue with this change.

I searched for the include and iproute2 was in the results. Sorry for the noise. Closing bug now.
