[Bug 1194791] Re: gufw does not start from System Settings -> Firewall Configuration

 

Invalid status? How convenient!

I've noticed a current trend in the software industry and open-source
community: denying a bug to avoid to have to solve it as long as only a
few users are affected by it. Nowadays, quantity surpasses quality by
far in people's mind.

I guess no one even tried to reproduce it in the same environment: Ubuntu 13.04 VirtualBox VM in Windows 7 host. 
What you're missing is that this bug could hide other weaknesses.

You can see by yourself in these very short silent videos that nothing happens when the firewall configuration is pressed:
