Bug Description

Binary package hint: ufw

If the filesystem is read-only, ufw will add and delete rules to the kernel using iptables, but the rules are not added to the rules files, and no error is reported.

---------------
ufw (0.29-3) unstable; urgency=low

  * use upstart instead of sysv initscript on Ubuntu (LP: #431804)
    - debian/control: Bump build-dependency on debhelper for Upstart-aware
      dh_installinit. Add Build-Dep on lsb-release
    - add debian/ufw.upstart.ubuntu
    - move debian/ufw.init to debian/ufw.init.debian
    - debian/ufw.init: rename to debian/ufw.init.debian and update insserv
      info to reflect reality
    - debian/rules: use upstart if Ubuntu and sysv if Debian
    - debian/postinst and debian/postrm: remove calls to update-rc.d
  * error out when filesystem is read-only. Merge from trunk (LP: #430053)
  * catch exception if can't find parent pid when refreshing application
    profiles. Merge from trunk (LP: #424528)
  * add doc/upstart.example and update README for Debian users who want to
    use upstart

Karmic has 0.29-4ubuntu1 with a backported patch from trunk. While 0.30 isn't released yet, Debian and Ubuntu already have the fix.
