Thank you for filing the report. Don't take offence for my mentioning of Fedora; I am aware of the differences, and RHEL would certainly be a more fair comparison. We are working to have them supporting TIPC too.

Despite being present in the source code, it has not been built in the current iproute2 package that comes with 15.10, something forcing all users to check out the code and build it manually. The reason for the buld failure is that it has a dependency to libmnl-dev, although this is not listed in the dependency list. Stephen Hemminger has confirmed that that using libmnl in iproute2 is ok, but unfortunately the dependency has been made optional, meaning that the build will just silently bypass TIPC is libmnl-dev is not found. If you just add libmnl-dev to the dependency list and make sure it is available when iproute2 is built the problem should be solved. On our side we will try to have the optionality removed from iproute2.
