Subject: bastille: InteracticeBastille complains about unsupported OS 'DB5.0'

Date: Mon, 05 Jan 2009 18:20:47 +0100

Package: bastille
Version: 1:2.1.1-19
Severity: important

The setup script "InteractiveBastille" is currently not starting due to an error message as follows:

-----------
ERROR: 'DB5.0' is not a supported operating system.
-----------

Additionally I currently cannot forward any traffic from LAN to Internet which has worked many months before. If you need more details, I have sent a mail to netfilter@vger.kernel.org.

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

I've seen the same problem too. Looks like the list of supported OS needs to
be updated in 2 files so that it supports Lenny (Debian 5.0):

/usr/lib/Bastille/API.pm
/usr/lib/Bastille/IOLoader.pm

I also tried the version from Experimental and it has the same problem.

Bastille starts, because I've had it configured and running for a few years.
Now I need to reconfigure bastille and InteractiveBastille fails on the
Debian Version number in /etc/debian_version .

Package: bastille
Version: 1:2.1.1-19
Followup-For: Bug #510884

The system is being set up as a firewall.  It is a clean base-only install, no 
gui.
It has been hardened by hand as good as I am able.  I have tried passing --os 
DB4.0 on the command line with no success.

Not sure that this is the right place to note this.
The fact that bastille is broken is not being reproted by apt-listbugs.  I had 
installed bastille discovered the problem, checked and discovered that I had 
not installed apt-listbugs on this box yet, installed apt-listbugs, 
uninstalled bastille, later reinstall bastille = no bug report on bastille.

For what it is worth.

Subject: bastille: Bastille says it doesn't work with Squeeze/Testing, complains about DB5.0 versioning

Date: Wed, 25 Feb 2009 13:35:07 -0800

Package: bastille
Version: 1:2.1.1-19
Followup-For: Bug #510884

The program says the version number of the operating system isn't able to
be worked on. I suppose the program just needs to accept the new
versioning string.

Subject: same problem, running Debian Lenny (now stable)

Date: Sun, 1 Mar 2009 22:56:28 -0500

package: bastille
version: 1:2.1.1-19

I have the same problem. This package does not appear to have been
updated for Debian Lenny.

I think it is more than that. Debian Lenny is different from Debian
Etch, and bastille probably needs to be changed to accommodate those
changes.

I hate to suggest an operating system besides Debian on a Debian
bug-tracker, but there is an operating system designed for firewalls.

Not that there's any reason Debian wouldn't make an excellent firewall
if properly hardened, but as much as I love apt, OpenBSD has its
charms.

Description: 
 bastille   - Security hardening tool
Closes: 510884 518251
Changes: 
 bastille (1:3.0.9-8) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * Upload to unstable, this package has been sitting in experimental
     for too long. Time to get wider testing.
   * Fix typo in calls to modprobe (Closes: #518251)
   * Fix Bastille/API.pm:
       - Make the check that determines wether it runs as root or not
         work properly
       - Replace a call to ErrorLog to a call to B_log
   * Update the latest stable version of Debian in Bastille/API.pm
   * Add DB4.1 and DB5.0 as supported Debian versions. This is not
     fully true, however, as Bastille has not been fully tested in sid or lenny.
     It will help people test it out though (Closes: #510884)
   * Update Bastille/API.pm.sweth to support Debian even if it's not
     currently used:
       - include definitions for testing Debian releases
       - include the list of Debian releases and the file locations
       - adapt chkconfig_off to support Debian
       - modify the code so that it uses statoverride
       - move chkconfig_on from Bastille/API.pm and adapt it to use
         the new functions
