This is an open issue with debian but I have opened it also as a Devuan bug
since I think it's likely to affect some here who don't bother to run dbus.
Needless to say, I am once again frustrated with dbus the garbage and bug

Imo this is nowhere near a pleasant way to do things for users. It would have
been much better to just provide a separate iptables nft package by default

Afaik openrc is compatible with the init scripts used by all packages.
