<span class="quote">> The options are supported, however they are missing from the help:

> $ iptables-restore -h
> Usage: iptables-restore [-c] [-v] [-V] [-t] [-h] [-n] [-T table] [-M
> command] [-4] [-6] [file]
>       [ --counters ]
>       [ --verbose ]
>       [ --version]
>       [ --test ]
>       [ --help ]
>       [ --noflush ]
>       [ --table=<TABLE> ]
>       [ --modprobe=<command> ]
>       [ --ipv4 ]
>       [ --ipv6 ]
> $</span >

You are using iptables-nft-restore which neither needs nor uses --wait. The
option is still accepted for compatibility (to not break existing scripts
passing the argument). Note that --wait-interval is gone since v1.8.8 in both
legacy and nft variants, see commit 07e2107ef0cbc ("xshared: Implement xtables
lock timeout using signals"). for details.

<span class="quote">> Also, the output could be improved:
> - group together the short and long options
> - use the same sorting as in the man page</span >

Feel free to send a patch, or suggest an improved output in a comment here.

Thanks, Phil</pre>
