Install of iptables causes failure #29

@zorbaTheRainy

Description

@zorbaTheRainy

The docker mod installs iptables by default.

root/etc/s6-overlay/s6-rc.d/init-mod-universal-tailscale/run

if [ -f /usr/bin/apt ]; then
    echo "\
        jq \
        iptables" >> /mod-repo-packages-to-install.list
fi

This results in the error

It fails on both lsiobase/ubuntu:noble and lsiobase/alpine:3.20 for AMD64.

Oddly it does not fail on lsiobase/alpine:3.20 for ARM64, as the install of iptables fails there, and therefore tailscale never tries to use iptables.

removal of the iptables line fixes the problem

if [ -f /usr/bin/apt ]; then
    echo "\
        jq " >> /mod-repo-packages-to-install.list
fi
