I might also add that there is no documentation about migrating from
Shorewall-shell 4.0.x to Shorewall-perl 4.2.x because virtually no one
tries to do that in one step. People generally upgrade to
Shorewall-shell 4.2.x and get that working THEN do the Shorewall-shell
to Shorewall-perl migration. In other words, attack and solve only one
problem at a time.
