Wouter, That is a problem that I discovered a few weeks after I uploaded 5.0.4. I was actually surprised that (a) I overlooked it, and (b) nobody ever reported it. The problem was corrected with the 5.0.7-1 upload to Debian unstable last week.
Executing 'systemctl enable shorewall.service' is the appropriate solution. It is effectively what the package does now after it is installed. There would not be a need to update to the newer package unless there was some other more pressing bug fix or new feature that you required.
