The iptables issue you found is a problem specific to your distribution, we can't know what all distributions will do.

What do you need to know about the kernel version? Its already mentioned that it has to be > 2.6.18. I know that there are problems with 2.6.38, but this is something recent which will be addressed in a future release. When 2.4.4 was released all kernels > 2.6.18 worked fine AFAIK.

About your gnutls issue: as I said, the problem was caused by some internal changes in Twisted, which is a project we don't maintain, and thus we can't possibly know what they will fix or break with every release.

Patches and/or additions to documentation are also welcome ;-)
