i've added here http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=197450
the new ebuild and tar.gz
for now i just unpacked and repacked libnl with the right name since i don't
have much time to work on it.
maybe sunday i'll have some spare time to fix this issue too. it won't take
much but now i'm having some other things to do, but since this is required
to build knetworkmanager from source i did it in the fast way.
this should also work for people not using gentoo:
download the libnl.tar.gz, download the libnl-1.0_pre8.tar.gz, unpack them,
go to the libnl-1.0_pre8 dir and do
patch -p1< "the 2 patches in the libnl.tar", ./configure
--libdir=/"your_lib_dir" && make && make install && cd include && make
install (the second is needed to install also the includes).
after that try compiling knm from svn and see that it works. you'll then
have an updated netlink library and an updated knetworkmanager.
