An update that has seven fixes can now be installed.
Description:
This update for SuSEfirewall2 fixes the following issues:
- Install symlink to SuSEfirewall2 with the updated SUSE spelling. (bsc#938727, fate#316521)
- Remove basic.target to avoid loop with SuSEfirewall2. (bsc#961258)
- Ignore the bootlock when incremental updates for hotplugged or virtual devices are coming in during boot. This prevents lockups for example when drbd is used with FW_BOOT_FULL_INIT. (bsc#785299)
- Support for IPv6 in FW_TRUSTED_NETS config variable. (bsc#841046)
- Don't log dropped broadcast IPv6 broadcast/multicast packets by default to avoid cluttering the kernel log. (bsc#847193)
- Only apply FW_KERNEL_SECURITY proc settings, if not overriden by the administrator in /etc/sysctl.conf. This allows you to benefit from some of the kernel security settings, while overwriting others. (bsc#906136)
- Fix a race condition in systemd unit files that could cause the SuSEfirewall2_init unit to sporadically fail, because /tmp was not there/writable yet. (bsc#1014987)
