Pablo suggested to print full config file path for connlabel.conf
parsing errors.

 Pablo,

 I could also add the suggested nfct_labels_get_path() to lnf_conntrack
 but that means next iptables-release depends on a new library version.
 Given this name is set in stone anyway I would prefer this patch instead.

 Let me know, thanks.
 I will send a separate patch to change nftables location.

We'll have a release of iptables 1.6.1 soon. Pablo Bermudo is working
on making sure that the interaction between nftables and
iptables-compat is fine.

And libnetfilter_conntrack is coming with IPv6 NAT support.

So I can schedule a release before end of this week / beginning next
weekend with accumulated updates so this comes in the next release.

Thanks for working on this!

Ah, I forgot about this.

Ok, I will send a patch for lnf-conntrack and iptables later today.
