Title:
  Problem with VPN

Status in Gufw:
  Invalid
Status in ufw:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  My VPN seems to disable the firewall whilst it - the VPN - is
  connecting; or at least GUFW shows the firewall as disabled. Moreover,
  the firewall comes back on when the VPN is connected. Good! The
  problem is as follows.

  *GUFW does not show the new - firewall re-enabled - state until GUFW
  is restarted (ie. until I've quit the program and restarted it).

  Linux Mint 18.1 x64 Cinnamon.
