Tom,

I am sorry that I didn't find time to test the beta. I couldn't find a 
set of bz2's to download, so assumed I would have to do a git clone - 
was that right?

Anyway, when the 4.5.21.2 bz2's were distributed to the mirrors, I tried 
to install them...

I'm sorry to say the fix did not work on my ubuntu raring system.

core configure and install run ok. shorewall-4 install is ok too.

BUT shorewall-init install fails with the line:

   ERROR: Unknown BUILD environment (ubuntu)


As I explained before, /etc/os-release contains two lines relevant to 
the failure:

ID=ubuntu
ID_LIKE=debian

However, your script's BUILD detection inner case section examines this 
file for an "ID" line, but it does not have a specific case for the 
string "ubuntu". I simply edited my own copy, cloned the "debian" 
section and made it handle "ubuntu" the same way, then the install worked.

I'm not sure what should be done for the best long-term solution. 
Perhaps you should test for "ID_LIKE" first, and use that value if it 
exists, then only fall back to the bare "ID" test if a value wasn't found?

Thanks for trying,

Brian
