successful configure itself is useless, build is the one that
matters.
Yes, I agree this, I just mean "not install genl is not the excuse of
fail
to configure in _above_ cases".
After double check, in libnl-3 of ubuntu 11.10 (sorry, I wrote it as 11.04
in above email) includes these content of lib-genl, so in 11.10, no
libnl-genl, which only is in 12.04, where the nl version is: 3.2.3.
and for libnl2, also no genl.

disagree, successful configure itself is useless, build is the one that
matters.
if one does not have all requirements for build, failed configure is ok.
