   This is a bugfix release, no new features have been added

Bugs fixed in tools

     * fixed bug #848545: "fwb_install via GUI problem with ssh terminal".
       Policy install script fwb_install calls ssh with a command line switch
       "-n" to avoind problems when the script is called from the GUI which
       works in the background and has no access to tty.

Bugs fixed in iptables policy compiler fwb_ipt:

     * fixed bug #848541: "Nothing to flush" on firewall execution. Iptables
       script flushes all aliased IPs on the firewall before installing new
       configuration, this caused harmless diagnostic print "nothing to
       flush" if there were no aliases.

Bugs fixed in iptables policy compiler fwb_ipf:

     * fixed bug #851489: "Accept TCP sessions opened prior" no saveable in
       ipfilter firewall dialog.
     * optimization of ipfilter configuration is now optional. Added checkbox
       "Optimization" in the ipfilter target firewall dialog and
       corresponding support in fwb_ipf.
     * fixed bug #851490: cannot use skip with quick. Ipfilter command "skip"
       does not allow keyword "quick".
     * fixed bug #851698 'Incorrect "skip" counters in ipf script'. fwb_ipf
       generated negative skip counters for certain rules.
