Description GB 2016-10-07 01:47:17 UTC
I noticed with the network applet in 1.4.2, actually I see this is also in 1.2x, not sure when this support was added for the FirewallID?

Is there a way to disable the compiling of this support in?

I would like to be able to remove the 'Firewall zone' under the General tab when you edit connections.

I personally have a firewall I use, so I have no need for this, and would like it removed from the GUI, even if it's not takking up space, or doing anything...

I hope someone can please make an update so there is a compile/flag to remove this?


--disable-firewall-zone


THANKS

The firewall-component in the applet/nm-c-e does not involve any additional dependency (like a library).

Thus, disabling it at compile time is not a big win and runtime-detection seems better.

That is already fixed by bug 769446 (which is not yet part of any official release of the applet).

I didn't realize only Fedora ships firewalld.

Well it would be great to get this completly removed out of the applet and the network-mananger and have this as optional compile flags for anyone that might use it...

But I guess for now it's being hidden?
