Public bug reported:

In Oneiric:

1- install gufw etc, and start it
2- click the lock and authenticate
3- turn the firewall on
4- quit
5- (optionally, verify from the terminal that the firewall is still active)
6- restart ufw

what happens: it shows "Firewall status: off" (greyed out), until you authenticate
what should happen: if the firewall state can't be reported until you authenticate, gufw shouldn't show something that looks like it's actually off

** Affects: gui-ufw
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New
