ANSWERED Debian Unstable network lock fail: /sbin/iptables-save: unrecognized option '--wait'

[Abadrook 0]

Hello!

 

Using Debian Unstable with regular upgrade/dist-upgrade.

 

Eddie 2.13.6 has been working fine, until a few days ago, when it started popping this error on activating network lock (probably related to some upgrade/dist-upgrade, don't know):

 

/sbin/iptables-save: unrecognized option '--wait'

Look at manual page 'iptables-save.8' for more information.

 

After that network lock is not active.

 

Same problem with 2.14 experimental.

 

Please advise!

Exactly the same for me on my siduction sid unstable OS

 

UPDATE

 

downgrading iptables from  1.6.2-1 to 1.6.1-2+b1 and the rest of the dependencies upgraded on 3rd Feb gets it working ok again.

 

other dependencies downgraded :

Setting up libip4tc0:amd64 (1.6.1-2+b1) ...

Setting up libip6tc0:amd64 (1.6.1-2+b1) ...

Setting up libiptc0:amd64 (1.6.1-2+b1) ...

Setting up libxtables12:amd64 (1.6.1-2+b1) ...

Thank you!

 

Let's hope Eddie is going to be updated to work with the new iptables soon.

Any comment from staff available ?

Hello!

 

Since you used the latest experimental, it would be beneficial if you reported it in the experimentals own thread and perhaps it'll be fixed in the next iteration .
