An update that has three fixes can now be installed.
Description:
This update for SuSEfirewall2 provides the following fixes:
- No longer call fillup during postinstall to prevent multiline configuration values being broken. (bsc#798468)
- 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 FB_BOOT_FULL_INIT. (bsc#785299)
- 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)
