[pkg-netfilter-team] Bug#886321: ipset: really ought to understand CIDR properly

[Phil Reynolds]

Package: ipset
Version: 6.30-2
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

When adding an entry to an ipset, if you do not specify a full dotted quad,
what gets added is not what you might reasonably expect

For example, if you were to type:

ipset add FOO 192.168/16

where FOO is the name of an existing inet family hash:ip set what it adds
is 192.0.0.0/16 - as though treating the 168 as 0.0.168, perhaps.
