I upgraded to beowulf without reading the changes and was
mystified that my self-written firewall scripts as well as
others such as ufw and arno firewall stopped working.

What was necessary to fix them was to create a link
/etc/alternatives/iptables to /usr/sbin/iptables-legacy.

Have fun (and working firewalls)
