The ax.25 tools use networking functions from the kernel that are
pretty much obsolete. That's what is generating this message. If
you're knowledgeable about coding, it might be possible to dig into
the tools source code and fix the issue, but not really worth it. The
message is harmless, and in fact, the directing of data to /dev/null
as previously suggested will not do any good, as the message is
coming from the kernel, not the program.
