Base System

iptables-nft

the /sbin/iptables{,-save,-restore} symlinks now point to xtables-nft-multi instead of xtables-legacy-multi. this means they use the nftables kernel backend instead of the legacy iptables one.

since the new iptables- binaries also don't use the iptables backend, to work with any existing rules and save them, you need to install iptables-legacy and use iptables-legacy-save.

because mixing backends is not supported, you should reboot your system if you have to use the iptables commands after upgrading.
