Title:
  ufw should provide an interface to update ip forwarding

Status in Gufw:

Status in “gui-ufw” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in “ufw” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: ufw

  Hi,

  As per this document
  (https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/serverguide/C/firewall.html), the user
  has to modify ufw's configuration files directly ("First, packet
  forwarding needs to be enabled in ufw. Two configuration files will
  need to be adjusted, in /etc/default/ufw change the
  DEFAULT_FORWARD_POLICY to “ACCEPT”"). The gufw package
  (https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gui-ufw) does just that.

  However, this conflicts with the Debian rules, which says that a
  program can't touch another's conffiles unless the main one gives it
  permission to (http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-
  files.html#s10.7.4). Could ufw please give gufw permission to ufw
  them?
