got some answers from the developer and it was pointed out to use the
4.15er kernel patch which did worked while building but loading the
module was not possible:

[127389.287576] xt_ndpi: disagrees about version of symbol module_layout

which is a little sad since it seems like the only one actual
development in this topic. Also the OpenDPI people have had their last
activities 6 years ago -->
https://github.com/ewildgoose/ndpi-netfilter
.

A current working solution is here -->
https://github.com/betolj/ndpi-netfilter
findable which seems to be a kind of the original one. There is also no
kernel/kernel_config patch needed but the code (but also the nDPI which
is from ntop) seems to be pretty outdated (needed to patch main.c to
bring it to life).

Some tests has been made and it do not work with 100 but with 90% but
the last (fundamental) activities are there also 2 years ago and it
looks like nobody maintains it currently.

A little documentation for a deeper look into, if wanted, can be found
in here -->

Best and thanks again for your help.
