Dear maintainer(s),

With a recent upload of nftables the autopkgtest of firewalld fails in testing when that autopkgtest is run with the binary packages of nftables from unstable. It passes when run with only packages from testing. In tabular form:

                       pass            fail
nftables               from testing    1.1.5-2
firewalld              from testing    2.3.1-2
all others             from testing    from testing

I copied some of the output at the bottom of this report.

Currently this regression is blocking the migration of nftables to testing [1]. Of course, nftables shouldn't just break your autopkgtest (or even worse, your package), but it seems to me that the change in nftables was intended and your package needs to update to the new situation.

If this is a real problem in your package (and not only in your autopkgtest), the right binary package(s) from nftables should really add a versioned Breaks on the unfixed version of (one of your) package(s). Note: the Breaks is nice even if the issue is only in the autopkgtest as it helps the migration software to figure out the right versions to combine in the tests.
