Subject: [PATCH] IPFire 2.15 - Do not overwite firewall settings
Date: Sat, 25 Jan 2014 23:05:11 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <52E43517.8000607@ipfire.org> (raw)

Dear Mailinglist followers,

I've doing some Pre-Beta tests of Core Update 76 on my testing system.

It has been a basic IPFire 2.13 Core 75 system with the New Firewall 
installed for testing purposes. After manually installing core 76 all 
existing firewall rules where gone because the will get overwritten in 
the update process.

This is a big problem on environments where the New Firewall is used 
productive or in case of an update from Beta 1 to another Beta or final 
Release.

I've successfully prepared and tested a patchset which will prevent the 
updater to overwrite the affected firewall config files.

The commit can be found here:

Please take a look on it and put the changes upstream so we can prevent 
other users from this issue.

Thanks in advance,

-Stefan
