Thanks Marco.

Alberto, Arturo, if you agree with moving /etc/ethertypes to netbase (I
assume this file is rather static and doesn't need constant updates), I
would propose the following:

- ebtables drops the file in version X. You poke Marco once that is done.
- netbase gets an upload taking over the file with a Breaks/Replaces:
ebtables (<< X) in version Y
- Since netbase is only prio important and not an essential package, I
would make follow-up uploads for iptables and ebtables with an explicit
depends: netbase (>= Y). I think an Depends is justified given that
ebtables-restore does not handle it gracefully when the file is missing.



Regards,
Michael
