Shorewall 4.4.27.1 is now available for download.

Problems corrected:

1)  When optimization category 4 is used, unconditional jumps at the
    end of chains are replaced with the rules in the target chain. This
    can result in rulesets that are considerably larger than
    necessary. Beginning with this release, replacement will only occur
    if:

    a)  The jump is the only reference to the target chain; or
    b)  The target chain contains 3 or less rules.

2)  The feature introduced in 4.4.25 that allowed provider names in the
    'enable' and 'disable' commands was only implemented for
    'enable'. It is now implemented for 'disable' as well.

3)  When detecting IPv6 global addresses through an interface, 
    Shorewall6-generated scripts were ignoring addresses beginning
    with '3'.

4)  A typo in /usr/share/shorewall/prog.header caused an 'awk' script
    to fail when saving a multi-hop default route during 'start'.

5)  The Shorewall uninstall.sh script previously removed the manpages
    from all Shorewall packages. Similarly, the Shorewall6 uninstall.sh
    script removed the Shorewall6 Lite manpages along with the
    Shorewall6 manpages. Now, both scripts remove just the manpages
    from their respective packages.

6)  The value '0' is once again accepted in the IN_BANDWIDTH columns of
    tcinterfaces and tcrules, and causes no ingress policing to be
    configured.

7)  MARK_IN_FORWARD_CHAIN=Yes no longer generates an error when 
    $FW:<address> is entered in the SOURCE column of the tcrules file.

8)  In most Shorewall 4.4 versions, if an exported params file
    (EXPORTPARAMS=Yes in shorewall.conf) generates any output to
    stdout, then the following messages would appear during
    start/restart:

      Compiling /etc/shorewall/routestopped...
      Shorewall configuration compiled to /var/lib/shorewall/.restart
      printf: 214: Build: expected numeric value
      printf: 214: ipset: expected numeric value
      printf: 214: of: expected numeric value
      Processing /etc/shorewall/params ...
      Build ipset of blacklisted addresses
      Usage: /var/lib/shorewall/.restart [ options ] <command>

         <command> is one of:
         start
         stop
         ...

    This has now been corrected.

Thank you for using Shorewall.
