Hi.

Seems the massive changes in the recent version breaks loading of
firewall rules by tools like netfilter-persistent...

# journalctl | grep netfilter
Oct 25 15:36:55 klenze systemd[1]: Starting netfilter persistent 
configuration...
Oct 25 15:36:55 klenze netfilter-persistent[345]: run-parts: executing 
/usr/share/netfilter-persistent/plugins.d/15-ip4tables start
Oct 25 15:36:55 klenze netfilter-persistent[345]: 
/usr/share/netfilter-persistent/plugins.d/15-ip4tables: 23: 
/usr/share/netfilter-persistent/plugins.d/15-ip4tables: /sbin/iptables-restore: 
not found
Oct 25 15:36:55 klenze netfilter-persistent[345]: run-parts: 
/usr/share/netfilter-persistent/plugins.d/15-ip4tables exited with return code 
127
Oct 25 15:36:55 klenze netfilter-persistent[345]: run-parts: executing 
/usr/share/netfilter-persistent/plugins.d/25-ip6tables start
Oct 25 15:36:55 klenze netfilter-persistent[345]: 
/usr/share/netfilter-persistent/plugins.d/25-ip6tables: 26: 
/usr/share/netfilter-persistent/plugins.d/25-ip6tables: 
/sbin/ip6tables-restore: not found
Oct 25 15:36:55 klenze netfilter-persistent[345]: run-parts: 
/usr/share/netfilter-persistent/plugins.d/25-ip6tables exited with return code 
127
Oct 25 15:36:55 klenze systemd[1]: netfilter-persistent.service: Main process 
exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE
Oct 25 15:36:55 klenze systemd[1]: netfilter-persistent.service: Failed with 
result 'exit-code'.
Oct 25 15:36:55 klenze systemd[1]: Failed to start netfilter persistent 
configuration.


I'd assume that all other firewall may also depend on the previous paths names,
but haven't checked it.


Severity critical, as such rules may easily be crucial for the whole
system security.


Cheers,
Chris.
