Public bug reported: The iptables package in Ubuntu already made the switch but it was reverted in LP: #1843468 due to breaking reverse dependencies and software not packaged in the Ubuntu Archive.
The switch of the default backend is also a preparation for making the nftables frontend to be the preferred tool for interfacing the Netfilter framework, thus please Recommend: it. Inclusion of the netfilter package in main is traced at LP: #1887187. I've prepared a Bileto ticket for staging and testing the packages which need to be changed: https://bileto.ubuntu.com/#/ticket/4044 The updated package break any package or project, please mark them affected and/or leave a commend in this bug. ** Affects: iptables (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Description changed: The iptables package in Ubuntu already made the switch but it was reverted in LP: #1843468 due to breaking reverse dependencies and software not packaged in the Ubuntu Archive.
