Since version 1.48.0 Tailscale should support other firewall implementations than iptables, namely nftables, see https://tailscale.com/docs/features/firewall-mode. But the Fedora package still requires iptables to be installed: ❯ sudo dnf remove iptables-nft Package Arch Version Repository Size Removing: iptables-nft x86_64 1.8.11-12.fc43 <unknown> 464.1 KiB Removing dependent packages: iptstate x86_64 2.2.7-10.fc43 fedora 95.3 KiB tailscale x86_64 1.94.2-1.fc43 updates 47.0 MiB See https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/tailscale/blob/f43/f/tailscale.spec#_41 for the hard dependency in the RPM spec file (it's the same also in rawhide). Reproducible: Always
I can confirm that tailscale still works after: ``` $ dnf download iptables-nft $ sudo dnf remove iptables-nft $ sudo rpm -i --justdb iptables-nft-1.8.11-12.fc43.x86_64.rpm $ sudo dnf install tailscale $ which iptables /usr/bin/which: no iptables in [...] $ sudo systemctl start tailscaled $ sudo systemctl enable tailscaled $ systemctl --user start tailscale-systray $ systemctl --user enable tailscale-systray ``` `sudo nft list ruleset` no longer shows "Warning: table [...] is managed by iptables-nft, do not touch!"
