   An update that has three recommended fixes can now be
   installed.

Description:


   This update for SuSEfirewall2 provides the following fixes:

   - No longer call fillup during postinstall to prevent multiline
     configuration values being broken. (bsc#798468)
   - Ignore the bootlock when incremental updates for hotplugged or virtual
     devices are coming in during boot. This prevents lockups for example
     when drbd is used with FB_BOOT_FULL_INIT. (bsc#785299)
   - Only apply FW_KERNEL_SECURITY proc settings, if not overriden by the
     administrator in /etc/sysctl.conf. This allows you to benefit from some
     of the kernel security settings, while overwriting others. (bsc#906136)
