Please see http://www.infradead.org/~tgr/libnl/

As you can see, libnl 1.1 was never released.  Where distros get it is
anyone's guess.  I asked in this list to release version 1.1, but there
was no reply.

struct nl_addr has been in the git repository from the beginning, that
is from the commit 44d362409d5469aed47d19e7908d19bd194493a4.  That
includes commit 2e6ded94f453ed725381b1fae5dcaa6c7fcfb9b8 that is called
"1.1 release".
