Package: iptables
Version: 1.3.3-2
Severity: important
I've had iptables installed for a long time, but I've never had
netfilter compiled into my kernel. Well, recent activity caused me to
finally do so, and the first time I went to do '/etc/init.d/iptables
save active', I got:
---
Saving iptables ruleset: save "active" with counters/etc/init.d/iptables: line
66: /var/lib/iptables/active: No such file or directory
Creating the directory fixed the problem. But I thought you might want
to add a check to the preinst scripts making sure the directory is in
fact there as it looks like at some point, it either didn't get created
by a newly installed iptables or was somehow removed.
