- Title: package shorewall in an opensuse repository
+ Title: package shorewall in an openSUSE repository
   
  openSUSE-11.4: Unconfirmed
  Priority
      Requester: Important
   
  Requested by: Divan Santana (divansantana7)
   
Description:
  openSUSE is a great open source community linux distribution.
  One thing I miss which other distros have, is that the shorewall
  firewall packages are not available in any repositories.
   
  It would be great if shorewall was packaged and available in a
  repository. Yes one can install this from http://shorewall.net but it
  is not really the ideal way of doing things.
   
  Shorewall is a powerful easy to use high level firewall program which
  many use as their primary firewall program. Please could this be
  packaged and available in an openSUSE repo for 11.4 .

  I would also like to see this. 
  The great documentaion, active enhancement, user support mailing list
  and ipv6 support in Shorewall is first class.

  Does that mean it will definitely be in an opensuse 11.4 repo?

  Current Stable Release is 4.4.13.3 so why include something that is not
  uptodate
   
+ #6: Andreas Jaeger (a_jaeger) (2010-11-09 14:29:07) 
+ What is the advantage of shorewall compared with the firewall we
+ currently use in openSUSE?
