Perhaps you want to use the -w option? ``` it seems that in utils.py, get_netfilter_capabilities(...) iptables is called without "-w" flag to wait for the table lock perhaps the checks should include this parameter to avoid leaving temporary tables behind (and breaking fail2ban, but thats a different story ...)?
