1) In all versions of Shorewall6 lite, the 'shorecap' program is
using the 'iptables' program rather than the 'ip6tables' program.
This causes many capabilities that are not available in IPv6 to
be incorrectly reported as available.
This results in errors such as:
ip6tables-restore v1.4.2: Couldn't load match `addrtype':
/lib/xtables/libip6t_addrtype.so: cannot open shared
object file: No such file or directory
To work around this problem, on the administrative system:
a) Remove the incorrect capabilties file.
b) In shorewall6.conf, set the IP6TABLES option to the
path name of ip6tables on the firewall (example:
IP6TABLES=/sbin/ip6tables).
c) 'shorewall6 load <firewall>'.
2) In a number of cases, Shorewall6 generates incorrect rules
involving the IPv6 multicast network. The rules specify
ff00::/10 where they should specify ff00::/8.
