[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#767888: firewall-applet: Cannot change zone of a connection

[Ralf Jung]

Package: firewall-applet
Version: 0.3.12-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

I'd like to change the zone of an active connection temporarily, i.e., without
changing the zone that will be associated to the connection per default.

I select "Options" - "Change zones of connections...", and then "DHCP" which
is the currently active connection. I select "public" (currently, the zone
for that connection is "home") and click Ok. Nothing happens, i.e., the small
window to change the zone remains opened and the zone does not change.

On the console, I get
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/firewall-config", line 1007, in change_zone_connection_editor
    editor.run()
  File "/usr/bin/firewall-config", line 5298, in run
    settings = connection_obj.GetSettings()
