Hello,

I receive the following errors when trying to run "make" on Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS:

root@simon:/opt/ts3init# make

After Googling, I can get around the "ISO C90 forbids variable length array" issue by adding -std=c99 as a switch on the gcc lines in Makefile.xtables. However, I don't know how to fix error: ‘struct shash_desc’ has no member named ‘flags’ error.

Any advice appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Simon
