I am running opensuse 15.1 with firewalld-0.8.3-lp151.1.1.noarch from h ttp://download.opensuse.org/repositories/security:/netfilter/openSU SE_L eap_15.1/ .

I found it wasn't starting and discovered it required python3- nftables in order to run but that wasn't a prereq.

Should firewalld prereq python3-nftables?

Check, if:

FirewallBackend=iptables

is in /etc/firewalld/firewalld.conf (should be the default), to be verified with:

$ rpm -V firewalld

Cheers, Pete

Thanks, Pete. The correct configuration was in firewalld.conf.rpmnew. It had lots of new stuff so I put it in use. I guess I installed an update without paying attention to what it did. It doesn't seem like the packaging needs fixing. Hopefully anybody else that somehow ends up at the same place I got will find this post and know how to fix it. Thanks again for your attention.
