why not you release 4.0.13? versions are cheap.
That's a pretty foolish thing for you to say, given that you have no way of knowing what is involved in producing a full Shorewall release. I suppose all things are cheap if you aren't the one who has to do them.
anyway even it's a small bug and the fix is very little imho it's a serious bug. since anyone who update to 4.0.11 and later sometime reboot his firewall (what's more do it remotely) cause that it's stop working. and it's hard to find the reason (i learn it in the hard way).
Only if they are running Shorewall-lite and only if they have done a 'shorewall-lite save' and only if their /etc/sysctl.conf doesn't enable forwarding, and only if they don't upgrade to 4.0.12 (which has the updated Shorewall-perl 4.0.12.1 package on all download sites).
and
currently the latest version in fedora, redhat and centos (epel) is 4.0.11 which makes thing worst.
The current version in fedora, redhat and centos is not really relevant to the question of whether I do a bug-fix release of Shorewall-perl or a full release of all four packages. Note that there is also a Shorewall-perl-4.0.11.2 which fixes the bug.
As a final note, Shorewall-lite 4.0.13 will remove the -f option from '/etc/init.d/shorewall-lite start' to make it consistent with Shorewall.
