Hi.
Gufw was working (xorg only, not under Wayland) until today. Today, I did a large update of multiple packages - about 240 Mb worth. After that Gufw no longer starts.
Symptoms: When gufw icon is clicked, the authentication window pops up as usual, requesting the user password. When entered incorrectly, the window just says incorrect, try again. When entered correctly, the authentication window disappears, and nothing further happens.
Same behavior using Linux, Linux-lts, and Linux-grsec kernels.
Note: Gufw always started correctly under xorg (chosen at GDM login). Gufw has never worked, just displayed the symptoms stated above, under Wayland (chosen at GDM login).
Since the update today involved many packages, I don't know which one(s) are the culprit(s). The updated packages seemed to be mainly about GTK and Python. All dependencies seem okay, and I did remove and reinstall Gufw. Same results. (Python-gobject is intalled and up to date).
I searched online, in the wiki, in the forums, and in the Arch bug reports, all to no avail. I did come across some old reports of similar problems, possibly where GTK was responsible.
Ufw is and has been working fine, enabled and autostarted under systemd. I can't see anything suspect in dmesg or journalctl, but might not recognize it if I did.
Setup: Arch x86-64 Gnome 3 Grub2 machine is UEFI-capable, but using bios (MBR). 1 root partition (EXT4) 1 swap partition
Contents of /var/log/gufw.log: [12/29/2016 10:47:41 PM] /usr/sbin/ufw --force delete 1 [12/29/2016 10:47:32 PM] /usr/sbin/ufw --force delete 2 [12/29/2016 10:46:15 PM] /usr/sbin/ufw deny in proto tcp from any to any port 23 [10/31/2016 09:41:17 PM] Confirm Delete Dialog: Enabled
I don't have 6 months to learn to use ufw without a gui.
Any magic solution?
If not - I'm so disgusted with ufw on Arch - can I just remove gufw, ufw, and ufw from systemctl, and then install firewalld. If so, will the existing iptables configuration be overwritten automatically, or would it have to be somehow purged manually?
Note: I have not filed a bug report yet. I wanted to see if it was really a bug, or a PEBKAC error.
It's not working for me either. Is gufw written in python? I know python was updated to 3.6 today, breaking a few packages till they get updated for 3.6.

Hi,
Looks like gufw needs a rebuild for python 3.6.
'/usr/bin/gufw-pkexec' contents.
#!/bin/bash LOCATIONS=( "/usr/lib/python3.5/site-packages/gufw/gufw.py" "/usr/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/gufw/gufw.py" "/usr/share/gufw/gufw/gufw.py" )
for ((i = 0; i < ${#LOCATIONS[@]}; i++)) do if [[ -e "${LOCATIONS[${i}]}" ]]; then python3 ${LOCATIONS[${i}]} $1 fi done
I would file a bug.
Regards
Phil

Wow, that seems to work here. Would that still work as an edit to /usr/bin/gufw-pkexec?

Yes it would, but I would hope a rebuild could be performed fairly quickly.

Yes, works from both terminal and just by clicking the icon. Password needed either way, of course. And that should be a quick rebuild.
Thanks, Phil!

This generates a new pyc file, so beware of conflicts when updating to a new gufw package. You will have to use the --force :)

Hi,
This should not be the case here as the latest package has already been built for python 3.6. The only issue is the path(s) in the file I referenced in an earlier mail.
Regards
Phil
I did:
sudo cp /usr/bin/gufw-pkexec /usr/bin/gufw-pkexec.old
Then sudo nano /usr/bin/gufw-pkexec and edited it from:
. . . "/usr/lib/python3.5/site-packages/gufw/gufw.py" "/usr/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/gufw/gufw.py" . . . to:
. . . "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/gufw/gufw.py" "/usr/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/gufw/gufw.py" . . .
and saved it.
It works, but when upgrading, what do I need to do, not do, and watch out for?
