We can in fact stop pulling in firewalld for post-install configuration
in most cases, I think, I'm talking to twoerner/anaconda team about
that. You can certainly remove it post-install and go back to using
iptables / s-c-f, all the packages and services still exist, there is no
dependency problem, and it still works, I've tested that. Actually, if
you have an F18 system you 'yum update'd from F17 you already probably
have this config, as there is no magic to do the switch to firewalld on
upgrade, you just carry on with iptables. That's what I have here.
