I've been running IPv6 locally without much trouble at all. Now I'd
like to build a firewall on my router and had a good look around for
debian packages for IPv6 compatible firewall software and I came up

but there clearly isn't any support in that for IPv6. I see there's
a 6wall that's based on Shorewall in LEAF/Bering, but it's really
old and not packaged. I'd rather not have to build my own rules
using ip6tables if possible.
I'm sorry, but the bad news is that currently you'll have to write the
ip6table rules by hand. The good news is that you might be able to use
the IPv4 rules as a base and just do some heavy editting.
