I've never seen that. That sort of (dynamic) behaviour is what
firewalld is supposed to do. I could see the sense in the *install*
routine for something like the named package, for example, also
installing firewall rules to allow its normal operation, but I've never
seen that, either.
Yes, of course you're right. Faulty gray matter.....
So used to using firewalld these days, and shorewall previously.
