1) Previously, the Shorewall-init installer unconditionally installed
the sysconfig file even when a different SYSCONFFILE was specified.
(Thomas D).
2) /sbin/shorewall-init now includes the correct SYSCONFDIR name in
its error message that reports the absense of
${SYSCONFDIR}/shorewall-init. (Thomas D).
3) /sbin/shorewall-init and the Shorewall-init SysV init scripts now
honor the setting of $OPTIONS.
4) The -lite installers now look in ${SHAREDIR} for the coreversion
file rather than in /usr/share/.

1) In addition to ''nolog'', the ''inline''
option is now assumed for
the action specified in the REJECT_ACTION option.
2) In earlier versions, default log levels in shorewall.conf
(shorewall6.conf) were not validated, making it difficult to
determine what setting was causing the following error message:
ERROR: Log level INFO requires LOG Target support in your kernel
and iptables
This change will make log level errors from shorewall.conf and
shorewall6.conf easier to isolate by including the option name.
Example:
ERROR: Log level INFO for option SFILTER_LOG_LEVEL requires LOG
Target support in your kernel and iptables
