Package: ufw
Version: 0.36-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

ufw fails to start with iptables 1.8.4-2, even after #946289 is fixed.
Downgrading to iptables 1.8.3-2 fixes this.  iptables-restore
(iptables-nft-restore) can no longer handle blank lines in the restored file.

Line 19 is the first blank line after the '### RULES ###' in user.rules:
