i posted to this thread because i wanted to find a relevant context. (but probably is not)

Anyway, i started a new thread for this.

the dependencies there look pretty complex so i did not find a quick fix - but i can test patches.

This appears to be caused by Jan's Kconfig changes to use menuconfig,
which lost a dependency on BRIDGE:

-menu "Bridge: Netfilter Configuration"
- depends on BRIDGE && BRIDGE_NETFILTER
-
-config BRIDGE_NF_EBTABLES
+menuconfig BRIDGE_NF_EBTABLES
tristate "Ethernet Bridge tables (ebtables) support"
select NETFILTER_XTABLES
help
ebtables is a general, extensible frame/packet identification
framework. Say 'Y' or 'M' here if you want to do Ethernet
filtering/NAT/brouting on the Ethernet bridge.

Does this patch fix it? diff --git a/net/bridge/netfilter/Kconfig b/net/bridge/netfilter/Kconfig
