Hi,
Looks like gufw needs a rebuild for python 3.6.
'/usr/bin/gufw-pkexec' contents.
#!/bin/bash
LOCATIONS=(
"/usr/lib/python3.5/site-packages/gufw/gufw.py"
"/usr/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/gufw/gufw.py"
"/usr/share/gufw/gufw/gufw.py"
)
for ((i = 0; i < ${#LOCATIONS[@]}; i++))
do
if [[ -e "${LOCATIONS[${i}]}" ]]; then
python3 ${LOCATIONS[${i}]} $1
fi
done
I would file a bug.
Regards
Phil
