Package: ufw
Severity: wishlist
Hello,
I've been using ufw for a long time to configure firewall rules on Debian 8 and
Debian 9. Current stable (Debian 10) has switched default firewall engine to
nftables.
If I understand correctly that is not a problem yet. Ufw keeps working because
Debian provides compatibility wrappers to support old-style iptables API with
new firewall framework. But will that be the case for future releases of Debian?
Are there any plans in upstream ufw project to support nftables backend?
Should users continue to rely on ufw or should they look for other software to
manage their firewalls?

Since this report is more of a question then a bug, and I've answered
the question, I'm closing the bug.
Thanks again
