Doc Text:
.The `firewall` RHEL System Role on RHEL 7 no longer attempts to install non-existent Python packages Previously, when the `firewall` role on RHEL 7 was called from another role, and that role was using `python3`, the `firewall` role attempted to install the `python3-firewall` library for that version of Python. However, that library is not available in RHEL 7. Consequently, the `python3-firewall` library was not found, and you received the following error message: ---- No package matching 'python3-firewall' found available, installed or updated ---- With this update, the `firewall` role does not attempt to install the `python-firewall` or `python3-firewall` library. As a result, the `firewall` role does not fail on RHEL 7 when `python3` is installed on the managed node.

Description Rich Megginson 2023-06-21 16:44:44 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #2216520 +++

When using the firewall role from another role, the firewall role will sometimes try to install the wrong version of python firewall.  Instead, just rely on the firewalld dependency to install it.  https://github.com/linux-system-roles/firewall/pull/148
