[Python-apps-team] Bug#929529: gufw: Version 17.04.1-1.1 removes characters from interface name rendering rules invalid.fixed in testing

[Richard Kaufhold]

Package: gufw
Version: 17.04.1-1.1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

the current stable version 17.04.1-1.1 removes characters from interface name
(showing enp0s31f instead of enp0s31f6) rendering rules invalid.

Reproduce:
1. Open gufw
2. Go to "Rules" tab.
3. Klick on "+" to add a new rule.
4. Go to "Advanced" tab.
5. Klick on the "All Interfaces" drop down menu. For me this shows enp0s31f but
my interface name is enp0s31f6 (shown in `ls /sys/class/net`).

This renders the stable version of gufw useless for me as the iptables rules
generated won't apply to any packets.

This is fixed in testing version 18.10.0-1.
