I'm getting this in a case where there is no ip6tables in use. Is there a
workaround for this? Its using the Shorewall from Debian stable.

# shorewall version
4.5.5.3

# shorewall try /etc/shorewall
...
   ERROR: Log level INFO requires LOG Target in your kernel and iptables

# uname -a
Linux hk2server 3.4.0-cloud #1 SMP Thu May 24 05:12:36 EDT 2012 i686
GNU/Linux
