Unable to compile when using IPTC

I am having some problems compiling the latest cvs version of linux-igd on my Ubuntu Hardy server. I have iptables 1.3.8 and iptables-dev 1.3.8 installed. Also, libupnp 1.3.1 is installed properly. I was using Ubuntu Dapper and linux-igd compiles perfectly there. I followed the very same procedure on Ubuntu Hardy and get this:
# make HAVE_LIBIPTC=1

As far as I know this problem is fixed in CVS. You'll need to get the latest version from there:
cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@linux-igd.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/linux-igd login
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@linux-igd.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/linux-igd co -P linux-igd

I already am trying to use the latest CVS. I even tried deleting the source and re-downloading using the cvs commands you provided. Thanks for the input. Much appreciated.
I should have tried it first ! Now posting from the Hardy machine and I get the same problem. The problem seems to be that the file /usr/include/linux/netfilter_ipv4/ip_nat.h has been removed from kernel 2.6.24.
I don't where it's gone - has netfilter been split out ? - nor what's happened to the things IGD needs from it (ip_nat_range and ip_nat_multi_range). I've spent a while googling but no luck yet.
Seems like netfilter was reworked in 2.6.22 and these types and fields are a) renamed from ip_nat* to nf_nat* but also, more importantly, now seem to be private and not exported in any public header except for the kernel headers.
I've had a similar problem in Debian because iptables 1.4 no longer exports libiptc in any case. I have to build the package without HAVE_LIBIPTC for that reason, which is why your problem didn't bite me earlier :-(
Not much help to you, I'm sorry. I don't know whether Daniel Blueman has any ideas, short of reworking the package to use whatever has replaced these formerly-public interfaces.
