Bug#830881: shorewall: fails to upgrade: No such method 'GetUnit', 'RestartUnit'
Package: shorewall Version: 5.0.10-1 Severity: important Hi, the recent shorewall upgrade did not work out on a long grown machine tracking testing (with probably some remaining parts of stable).

The maintainer script incorrectly uses '#!/bin/sh -e', that should rather have 'set -e' as a separate command. > If you could please send back the resulting output, that would be very > helpful. here we go ... To me this looks like it is a bit too systemd-specific, but I might be wrong here ...

I am surprised that deb-systemd-invoke is present when systemd isn't the init system. I'll take a look at this and get an update out in the coming days. In the meantime, you can remove /lib/systemd/system/shorewall.service and then reconfigure the package. Regards, -Roberto -- Roberto C.
