Package: ferm
Version: 2.1-4
Severity: important
Upgrade to 2.1-4 dies with an error about stopping ferm. The firewall
is left running, but the ferm scripts are already in place and future
manual or automatic operations fail with the message "Died at
/usr/sbin/ferm line 1719".
By commenting out that line in /usr/sbin/ferm I can get a slightly more
useful, but still incorrect error message about mis-matched "}". The
actual problem turned out to be the config block was starting with
"domain (ip ip6) table filter {...}" to specify rules shared by both
IPv4 and IPv6 firewalls.
This "domain (ip ip6)" syntax appears not to be a problem when used in
the main ferm.conf file, and is valid. But the new version errors out
with the above problems when it is used in a sub-include file.
Workaround was to cut-n-paste a blocks of config file into "domain ip
..." and "domain ip6 ..." blocks. Or to move the domain stanza outside
the include file. Both of which can be problematic when the config files
are under different administrative jurisdictions or automatically
generated.
