When building an image including iptable built with the libnftnl
PACKAGECONFIG, one hits
Downloading file:.../oe-rootfs-repo/armv8a/libkmod2 * check_data_file_clashes: Package iptables wants to install file .../rootfs/etc/ethertypes
But that file is already provided by package * netbase
This used to be handled by
0003-Makefile.am-do-not-install-etc-ethertypes.patch, but that patch
got removed with the 1.8.9->1.8.10 upgrade (commit 4616ada82e70).
I think the rationale for dropping the patch was wrong; the commit log
talks about xtables.conf, which is indeed gone from upstream, but said
patch didn't change anything about xtables.conf, it did
-dist_conf_DATA = etc/ethertypes etc/xtables.conf
+dist_conf_DATA = etc/xtables.conf
However, instead of patching iptables to not install ethertypes, and
having to forward-port that patch, it is much simpler to just remove
the file in this do_install:append.
