Description Marco Pallotta 2010-04-03 22:32:09 UTC 
This bug was already reported on launchpad (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firestarter/+bug/386117)

The package "firestarter" installs a menu item under Application -> Internet with the label "Firestarter" but it lacks a useful human description about the target of the app (http://library.gnome.org/devel/hig-book/stable/desktop-application-menu.html.en).
"Firestarter desktop firewall" could be a possible solution for english language
"Firestarter firewall per il PC " could be a solution for Italian language.
No other languages I know.

Tested with Ubuntu Lucid (10.04) beta 1

firestarter development has been stalled and it has been unmaintained for a few years now. I contacted Tomas Junnonen (majix@iki.fi) because he is listed as Developer on project page but didn't get any response. I found firestarter on fedora wiki [1] under deprecated packages so i am closing all the bugs as WONTFIX. Please feel free to reopen the bugs in future if anyone takes the responsibility for active development.
