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.
