The fix is said to have been applied *before* 4.9 and confirmed as fixed in version 4.9.5. There have been no fixes to netfilter between 4.9.2 (which I think you're using) and 4.9.5. So it sounds like you might have found a different bug. Ben. -- Ben Hutchings Any sufficiently advanced bug is indistinguishable from a feature.
