Hi,

I noticed libreswan FTBFS in unstable with this error:

See also this reproducible builds log:

This only happens when using linux headers from 4.15.

I think the cause of this was a change in 4.15 in the if_ether.h header.
It should be fixed by this upstream patch (applied in linus's tree but
not yet in stable):

"uapi/if_ether.h: move __UAPI_DEF_ETHHDR libc define"

Thanks,
James

Upstream commit da360299b6734135a5f66d7db458dcc7801c826a part of v4.16-rc3 and
included in Debian with 4.16~rc5-1~exp1, so closing with that version.
