It did, actually:

No harm done, but I wonder what to try next.

Bummer. I don't remember what my firewalld was in the beta, but I had
been updating regularly so I assume I downgraded from 3.13 to 3.12. In
any case, I'm now at 3.12. I know that "hit 'yes' and pray" is
probably
not the best admin strategy, but when it comes to these upgrades that's
pretty much how I roll, and it usually works out.
