Good timing, I've just been playing around with the libnetfilter stuff.

As far as I know, libnetfilter_queue is not in RHEL7, so I've built 1.0.2 for 
EPEL7.

Looks like it would have to be a fairly old libnetfilter_queue (possibly 
0.0.17?) in EPEL6 due to old dependencies in RHEL6.

I've also asked for updated libraries in RHEL6:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1095449

You could pile on there.
