From: Thomas De Schampheleire <redacted> Since the upgrade of ebtables from 2.0.10-4 to 2.0.11, there no longer is an 'ebtables' binary. It has been renamed to 'ebtables-legacy' and moved from '/sbin' to '/usr/sbin'. This change is part of the upstream change to integrate the functionality of ebtables (and arptables) in the iptables package, using the nf_tables kernel backend [1]. Unfortunately, the renaming (and move) of the original 'ebtables' binary breaks existing scripts that are calling 'ebtables' or '/sbin/ebtables'. Therefore, add a symlink from the original path to 'ebtables-legacy'. However, do not provide this symlink if BR2_PACKAGE_IPTABLES_NFTABLES is enabled. In this case, the iptables package will build the new equivalent of ebtables -- a symlink to ebtables-legacy would cause conflicts.
