Description of problem: Hi, thanks for all the work on the EPEL project! I use ferm on many CentOS 7 systems and would like to migrate to CentOS 8. Would it be possible to provide ferm packages there as well? Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: ferm isn't available on epel8 Expected results: ferm being available on epel8 Additional info:
While I am sure ferm would still work on EL8 - have you looked at migrating your firewall rules to nftables? Iptables is deprecated and ferm is not going to be extended to support nftables because it doesn't make much sense to do so.
Hi, I'm aware of nftables. But migrating a huge amount of rules on a few hundred systems takes a lot of time. Since iptables is still supported at the moment it would be nice to continue using it on CentOS 8.
