Dropping support for libnl1 and libnl2?



Hi,

All the major distros appear to have been shipping libnl3.x for quite a
while already, and it's becoming increasingly difficult to support
libnl1.x and 2.x with some of the newer features that are being added to
NM like bridging, bonding, vlan, etc.

So, given that libnl 3.2.7 has been out for almost a year (2012-01-20),
and most major distros are packaging it (Ubuntu, OpenSUSE, Debian,
Fedora, Gentoo, Arch), would anyone object to libnl >= 3.2.7 as a build
requirement for the next release of NetworkManager?
