Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: firehol
If I install Firehol and configure it to start in /etc/default/firehol
using the original configuration that came with the package, I get
errors similar to the following when Firehol starts:
ERROR : # 12.
WHAT : A runtime command failed to execute (returned error 2).
SOURCE : line FIN of /etc/firehol/firehol.conf
COMMAND : /sbin/iptables -t filter -A out_world -m state '' --state RELATED -j
ACCEPT
OUTPUT :
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SOURCE : line FIN of /etc/firehol/firehol.conf

ACCEPT

ERROR : # 15.
WHAT : A runtime command failed to execute (returned error 2).
SOURCE : line FIN of /etc/firehol/firehol.conf
COMMAND : /sbin/iptables -t filter -A FORWARD -m state '' --state RELATED -j
ACCEPT
OUTPUT :
It seems that Firehol is putting extra quote marks in the iptables command that
are not compatible with the current version of iptables. Older versions of
iptables seem to handle these quote marks with no trouble, but the version in
Feisty is unable to handle them and causes these errors.
