Description David Kaspar // Dee'Kej 2018-06-06 09:48:17 UTC
Description of problem:
FWIHBT the 'system-config-firewall' package contains also the DBus hooks for setting firewalld via DBus calls.

These DBus hooks are now (starting with RHEL-7.5) needed for network-scripts to function properly, since the firewalld calls have been replaced with DBus calls, which are much faster.

If the network-scripts or firewalld would require the 'system-config-firewall' in the specfile, it would pull-in also the GTK2. This is not desirable on server installations without a GUI.

That's why we need to somehow separate the DBus hooks into some (sub)package that will not have this dependency.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
system-config-firewall-1.2.29-10.el7

How reproducible:
Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
See BZ #1586284.
