Package: iptables
Version: 1.3.3-2
Severity: important

As of 2.6.18 linux kernel there is no longer support for nth, random and
fuzzy in netfilter, they have been replaced by statistic...

Iptables 1.3.5 supports nth, random, and fuzzy, but in iptables 1.3.6
support for these was removed as it was in the 2.6.18 linux kernel,
instead support for statistic match has been added, changes have also 
been made to quota match in 2.6.18 and 1.3.6 has been updated to work 
with these changes...

On top of this there is also several new features in the 2.6.18 kernel
which require iptables 1.3.6 some of these are very useful.

I would really like to see 1.3.6 iptables in etch so that myself and
other people using these features arent required to mix releases and 
use a 1.3.6 iptables pacakge from a different release when etch 
becomes stable
