The kmyfirewall package depends on net-firewall/iptables, but this dependency
is not enforced.

Furthermore, kmyfirewall 0.9.6 has not yet been removed nor masked, though its
behaviour is known to be broken on Gentoo. 0.9.6.2 is patched specially for
this.

Enforces runtime dependency on iptables.

thanks - fixed.

Thanks for being quick, but there's yet a problem - all versions of kmyfirewall
depend on iptables, while I've seen in portage that only 0.9.6.2 has the
correct dependency. It would not be a very bad thing if 0.9.6.2 were x86, but
right now the version marked stable is 0.9.5.

I suggest therefore that the dependency is added to all kmyfirewall ebuilds.

Cheers,
-Federico

Good point. 0.9.6.2 marked stable and other version include a iptables depend
too. Thanks again.

Confirmed spotting in portage & closing bug. Thanks!
