+ - default banactions need to be specified in `paths-*.conf` (maintainer level) now
+ - since stock fail2ban includes `paths-debian.conf` by default, banactions are `nftables`
+ (can be overwritten in `jail.local` by user)
+* `paths-debian.conf`:
+ - default banactions are `nftables`
+ - sshd backend switched to `systemd` (gh-3292)
 * circumvent SEGFAULT in a python's socket module by getaddrinfo with disabled IPv6 (gh-3438)
 * avoid sporadic error in pyinotify backend if pending file deleted in other thread, e. g. by flushing logs (gh-3635)
 * `action.d/cloudflare-token.conf` - fixes gh-3479, url-encode args by unban
