Current version of shorewall in F27 is shorewall-5.0.14.1-5.fc27.noarch.rpm which is quite old (over a year). Current version upstream is 5.1.8.1. Even in the "prior stable release" the version is 5.0.15.6 which is still newer than current F27. master at https://src.fedoraproject.org/cgit/rpms/shorewall.git/log/ is showing an update 5.1.8 which itself needs updating to 5.1.8.1. But aside from that, when will that update be backported to F27 and F26?
What serious bugs are you hitting?
http://shorewall.org/pub/shorewall/5.1/shorewall-5.1.8/releasenotes.txt KNOWN PROBLEMS REMAINING #3: 3) While the 'ip' utility now accepts IPv6 routes with multiple 'nexthop' destinations, these routes are not balanced. They are rather instantiated as a sequence of single routes with different metrics. Furthermore, the 'ip route replace' command fails on such routes. Beginning with Shorewall6 5.0.15, the generated script will use a "delete..add.." sequence on these routes rather than a single "replace" command. Before this, one cannot load a Shorewall 6 policy more than once without flushing some routing tables or one gets errors in trying to apply the policy.
Any further comments on the above?
