Patrick McCosker, could we please have a description of the bugfix in English, please? I'm pretty handy with the Terminal, but I'm not quite at the level of Ubuntu Demigod yet. Also, am I right in inferring from this thread that the "Off" status on Gufw merely means that the interface is inactive, but upon unlocking Gufw, it will confirm the Terminal's output that Ufw IS in fact active, and the rules set are still in effect?
