This appears to be a test environment issue. I was unable to reproduce
on my laptop, in Debian sid, in an eoan to focal upgrade and a bionic to
focal upgrade. iptables.postinst looks fine too. I'll reopen if I have
something more concrete.

Title:
  ip6tables alternate is not setup correctly

Status in iptables package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  ip6tables is not properly setup for the nft backend.

  $ sudo update-alternatives --query ip6tables
  Name: ip6tables
  Link: /usr/sbin/ip6tables
  Slaves:
   ip6tables-restore /usr/sbin/ip6tables-restore
   ip6tables-save /usr/sbin/ip6tables-save
  Status: auto
  Best: /usr/sbin/ip6tables-legacy
  Value: /usr/sbin/ip6tables-legacy

  Alternative: /usr/sbin/ip6tables-legacy
  Priority: 20
  Slaves:
   ip6tables-restore /usr/sbin/ip6tables-legacy-restore
   ip6tables-save /usr/sbin/ip6tables-legacy-save

  Alternative: /usr/sbin/ip6tables-nft
  Priority: 10
  Slaves:
   ip6tables-restore /usr/sbin/ip6tables-nft-restore
   ip6tables-save /usr/sbin/ip6tables-nft-save

  
  But, looking at the files in /usr/sbin, /usr/sbin/ip6tables is not a symlink 
into /etc/alternatives/ip6tables:

  $ ls -l /usr/sbin/ip6tables
  -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 99296 Feb 28 08:16 /usr/sbin/ip6tables

  but the symlink in /etc/alternatives is setup ok:

  $ ls -l /etc/alternatives/ip6tables
  lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 26 Mar  2 10:12 /etc/alternatives/ip6tables -> 
/usr/sbin/ip6tables-legacy

  This breaks, for example, ufw when the system is setup for nft.
