<description>This update for SuSEfirewall2 provides the following fixes:
- Make SuSEfirewall2 check for existing configuration in more sysctl.d style directories to
allow packages and the user to create overrides easily (bsc#1044523)
- Add support for customizing the sysctl paths to be scanned for existing configuration by
changing the FW_SYSCTL_PATHS configuration variable (bsc#906136)
- Correct the initialization order between SuSEfirewall2 and NFS components to make sure
NFS server ports are correctly opened when both services are enabled in systemd, and to
fix NFS clients not receiving callbacks from the server when started before SuSEfirewall2.
