ip6tables v1.4.0: can't initialize ip6tables table `filter': Address family not

Perhaps ip6tables or your kernel needs to be upgraded.
dpkg: error processing ufw (--purge):
subprocess post-removal script returned error exit status 3
Errors were encountered while processing:
ufw
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
Solution is to enable ipv6 temporary and do modprobe ipv6, so ip6tables can be
executed when removing the software.
