Bug Description

In the man page for "xtables-multi" there is a reference to "ip6tables-resotre".

The correct reference would be "ip6tables-restore".

Attached patch fixes it.

As mentioned by the bug watch updater, the patch has been applied in Debian and is fixed in iptables version 1.6.0-3.

Though since Ubuntu has some additional patches for this package, it will need to be merged in order for the fix to appear in Ubuntu.

Looks like someone merged iptables, because the fix is part of iptables 1.6.0-3ubuntu2 which is available in Ubuntu 17.04. See for instance http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/zesty/en/man8/xtables-multi.8.html which no longer references "resotre".

Thanks again for reporting and fixing this issue :)
