Iptables change in Buster/Beowulf Pups

Post by darry19662018 »

Hi guys don't know whether know whether you could call this a bug - but it affects Puppy Linux firewall in Buster/Beowulf Pups. (Well Beowulf anyway havn't tested busterpup or Dpup Buster Pup.

I compared the iptables package in Beowulf/Buster with Stretch Backports and found there is no /sbin/iptables in the package and the firewall is expecting this any thoughts on this as Puppy thinks that iptables is not installed.

Uninstalling iptables and installing Stretch Backports package fixed the issue in Beowulf Pup - otherwise firewall won't run.

I already discovered this in raspup development last year. There is a hack in woof since October 2019 that takes care of iptables.
