shorewall-devel: [Shorewall-devel] Shorewall 4.5.2 Beta 4

[Shorewall-devel] Shorewall 4.5.2 Beta 4

Beta 4 is now available for testing.

In this version:

1) Problems reported against Beta 3 have been corrected, including:

        - Installing the RPM fails to install ~/.shorewallrc
        - Syntax error in the default /etc/init.d/shorewall

4) TEMPDIR has been added as a configuration option in .shorewallrc.
    When specified, it causes the generated script to export TMPDIR
    with the specified value.

    Note: The different spelling in the option is intentional
          to avoid overwriting the TMPDIR setting of shell programs
          that source .shorewallrc.

3) A configure script has been added to each package. The arguments to
    the script are the usual list of <option>=<value> assignments. The
    supported options are the same as those listed in the release
    notes, although they may be in lower case and may be optionally
    preceded by '--'.

    The configure script uses the setting of --host to select the
    appropriate rc file. It reads that file to establish default
    settings and then applies the values specified in the argument
    list. To allow use with the %configure RPM macro, only the last
    occurrence of a particular option setting is applied. The resulting
    settings are written to a file named 'shorewallrc' in the current
    working directory and are also written to standard out.

Thank you for testing,
-Tom
