Package: ferm
Version: 2.0.5-1
Severity: important

hi,

It shouldn't even be inserting those types of rules into the save file,
because - of course - iptables* doesn't understand ip6tables*
rulesets, which makes iptables(-restore,-save} die, which makes ferm
die.

examples:

=====
ferm --slow -i ferm.conf                        
iptables v1.4.2: invalid mask `128' specified
Try `iptables -h' or 'iptables --help' for more information.
=====

=====
ferm -i ferm.conf       
iptables-restore v1.4.2: invalid mask `128' specified
Error occurred at line: 199
Try `iptables-restore -h' or 'iptables-restore --help' for more information.
=====

Which comes from this, and others like it:

=====
...
-A INPUT --destination ::1/128 --jump ACCEPT
...
=====

thanks,
simon
