Public bug reported: Binary package hint: ufw
[ufw_0.30pre1-0ubuntu2 on lucid] ufw's postrm script does the following on purge: for exe in iptables ip6tables do if which $exe > /dev/null 2>&1; then $exe -P INPUT ACCEPT 2>/dev/null || true $exe -P OUTPUT ACCEPT 2>/dev/null || true $exe -P FORWARD ACCEPT 2>/dev/null || true $exe -F 2>/dev/null || true $exe -X 2>/dev/null || true fi done That's completely unexpected if ufw wasn't in use at all and there's another firewall configured (e.g. shorewall/shorewall6). The policies and chains should only be reset if ufw actually was in use. ** Affects: ufw (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Purging should not set reset policies/chains if ufw wasn't enabled https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/581744 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
