Thank you for your quick fix. As I do not want to install stuff I do not
need in my netbook (the suggested packages bring a lot of dependencies,
and it is hard to keep track to remove them clean again), what I did was
to get bzr branch lp:gui-ufw in another pc, copy it to my netbook, take
a backup of etc/gufw/, remove gufw, and I tried to run ./gui-
ufw/bin/gufw, of course without any success. Actually to test the ui
only it does not need to fully work, just to start. If you know a way
for me to start the UI somehow from the source location without
installing the dependencies (they should be there from the current gufw
install) and without running setup.py, I can help.

Title:
  Window size 640x480

Status in Gufw:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  My netbook, I use up and now, has a resolution of 1024 x 600 pixels.

  I upgraded to Ubuntu 13.10 and found out your gufw app is now bigger
  that my screen height. Completely unusable. Same shit as Windows 8
  requirements.

  Can you please fix the height, so that it fits back again?

  Good software should work with 640x480 VGA resolution. Never, ever
  make a unresizeable dialog that is bigger than 640x480 pixels. Allow
  users to resize down at least to 640x480. Take into consideration also
  the window manager title head and border.

  How on the Earth you come with the idea to make the dialog so big? In
  your web page screenshot it looks so small and nice.

  Other than this, a nice app.
