Description Phillip Sorensen 2011-11-22 15:35:51 UTC 
Description of problem:

After installing system-config-firewall-tui on a minimal install, I was unable to run the program due to a python error when trying to load the 'snack' module.  After installing the newt-python package everything worked. 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

1.2.27-3.el6_1.3

Additional info:

Bug #599669 seems to be the same bug filed against Fedora.

    import fw_tui
  File "/usr/share/system-config-firewall/fw_tui.py", line 35, in <module>
    from snack import *
ImportError: No module named snack

yum install newt-python and it runs fine.
