Package: nftables
Version: 0.9.0-1
Severity: normal

Hi,
I make use of a "named set" for blacklisting purposes.
The relevant part in /etc/nftables.conf:

table ip filter {
        set blacklist {
                type ipv4_addr
                flags interval
                include "/etc/ipset-blacklist/ip-blacklist.nft"
        }
}

The file /etc/ipset-blacklist/ip-blacklist.nft is generated from several
sources, its contents are not perfectly organized.

I was running Stretch, and it worked great. I just upgraded to Buster, and now
nftables.service fails to start with this message:

Error: conflicting intervals specified

Ok, apparently the file contains those.
After some Googling, I tried to add "auto-merge" to the blacklist options, and
now it works again.

I thought maybe this change should be documented somewhere for other upgraders,
or handled automatically.
Perhaps I file this bug to the wrong package (maybe it's kernel or release
notes?), but now at least it is known.

Thanks!
