Have a look at Tom's answer (1) and at this URL (2):

1)  https://sourceforge.net/p/shorewall/mailman/message/36385172/
2)  http://shorewall.org/download.htm#Distros

"If you run Debian and would like a .deb package, Shorewall is included
in the Debian Stable Branch, the Debian Testing Branch and the Debian
Unstable Branch.
Additionally, packages for the current Debian stable release are
available from the package maintainer's personal page. Those packages
are almost always more up-to-date than the ones in the Debian Stable
Branch."

"If you want to install using a tarball (no compilation required) then
use the Standard Sites."
