I have now 2 gufw-icons in my tray. A grey one (firewall is disabled)
and a green one, stating that the firewall is active ???

Status in “gui-ufw” package in Ubuntu: New

Bug description:
Binary package hint: gufw

I installed Gufw. After the installation I clicked on the new installed 
menu-item (System -> Preferences). I was not able to enable the firewall nor to 
make any of the settings (all grey). Then I opened the terminal-console and 
entered gufw. A dialog appeared asking for the sudo password. Then I was able 
to set up the firewall. I closed the terminal. I was able to enter Gufw (System 
-> Preferences) and to disable the firewall. After disableing the firewall all 
settings are greyed out again and I have to start gufw by means of the terminal 
again.

Why isn't the sudo-popup-dialog not invoked when you start gufw via 
System-Preferences? And why can one disable the firewall without a password?
