Description David Woodhouse 2005-10-25 07:44:51 UTC
On big-endian machines, glibc-kernheaders' ip.h has an incorrect definition of
struct iphdr, with the 'version' and 'ihl' fields swapped. (bug #171678).

This means that attempting to create a tunnel fails. Once glibc-kernheaders is
fixed, we need to rebuild iproute.

Comment 4 David Woodhouse 2007-04-10 22:14:09 UTC
glibc-kernheaders is now fixed.
