Package: netfilter-persistent Version: 1.0.9 Severity: minor Dear Maintainer,
Please find below an excerpt of the log of my last aptitude full-upgrade, which resulted in errors while processing netfilter-persistent and iptables-persistent. After reboot, the status of netfilter-persistent and iptables --list-rules seem ok, but I nevertheless report the log because gives weird log errors (sbin/iptables-restore: not found) you might want to avoid.
