Bad news for me! I am experimenting on a laptop running quantal, so
there isn't a problem (except my time and effort) upgrading. I even have
plans to move it to raring 13.04 "properly" and so could consider doing
it sooner.

Unfortunately, my production firewall system which really needs xtables-
addons (only the ipsets feature) is also running quantal, but with a
custom-built kernel. It is a mini-itx that does not have pae support,
and all the distribution ubuntu kernels from quantal onwards are built
with pae as a pre-requisite. I only moved the system off 12.04 LTS to
get around some different problems, and am now stuck with a high
maintenance 12.10. The life expectancy of 13.04 is quite short, so I
didn't want to keep upgrading this system - it is supposed to be stable!

It is probably too late to downgrade it to 12.04, even if we could be
sure there was a suitable xtables-addons package for that distribution.

It looks as if I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place. When in
doubt... do nothing.
