Description Thomas Woerner 2016-08-22 04:32:09 EDT

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1368625 +++

Trying to get the description for a zone using firewall-cmd exits with status code 1, and prints an error message:

↪  sudo firewall-cmd --permanent --zone=public --get-description
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/bin/firewall-cmd", line 1783, in <module>
    cmd.print_and_exit(settings.getDescription())
NameError: name 'settings' is not defined

The syntax for this command matches the example given in the man page, so this is either a bug in firewall-cmd, or in the way it's packaged. Right?

The equivalent command using the newer CLI utility (`sudo firewallctl zone public get description`) works as it should, however.

I'm testing with firewalld 0.4.3.3, both on Fedora 24 Cloud Base and Fedora 24 Workstation. (Fedora Cloud is a guest in virt-manager 1.4.0 on my host Fedora Workstation desktop.)
