Requesting Shorewall v5.0.1 (released 12-Oct-2015) after 48 hour waiting period.
In progress, PR submitted: https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/pull/241 With shorewall-5 we finally dropped 'rc_need="net"'. Hint for people running recent linux-4.2.x: You will probably hit the bug mentioned in https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=9cf94eab8b309e8bcc78b41dd1561c75b537dd0b That's not a bug in shorewall.
