+<p>In Shorewall version <span style="font-weight: bold;">4.4.*</span>,
+the Shorewall-common, Shorewall-shell and
+Shorewall-perl packages are discontinued and replaced with a single <span
+ style="font-weight: bold;">Shorewall</span> package which combines the
+functions of Shorewall-common and Shorewall-perl. The shell-based
+compiler is retired. So with Shorewall 4.4 onward, there are four
+packages:<br>

+<ul>
+  <li><span style="font-weight: bold;">Shorewall </span>-- Includes

+firewall.</li>

+legacy Shorewall configuration compiler
+written in Bourne Shell. Not recommended for new installations.<br>

+  <li><span style="font-weight: bold;">Shorewall-perl</span> -- an
+implementation of the Shorewall
+configuration compiler written in the Perl programming language. This
+compiler is much faster than Shorewall-shell and produces a firewall
+script that runs faster. It is the preferred compiler for new Shorewall
+installations.</li>
