Dietmar,

I have upgraded firewalld on FreedomBox testing and chose to keep
FreedomBox's configuration instead of the package maintainer's
version. The upgrade seems to have gone through without issues.

The diff as you said is changing the default zone from external
to public and adding the line "FirewallBackend=iptables" to the
file.

root at FreedomBox /etc/firewalld # diff firewalld.conf
firewalld.conf.dpkg-dist 6c6
< DefaultZone=external
---
> DefaultZone=public
57a58,64

> FirewallBackend=iptables

You can try replacing your firewalld.conf file with the previous
version (see attached) and restart firewalld or a do a system
reboot.
