Thanks to all contributors, testers and bug reporters. Regards, Thomas _______________________________________________ firewalld-users mailing list It is customary to release new software as a tarball, as this release of firewalld was released here.  This tarball then gets packaged up by each distribution's package maintainers for their individual distribution (i.e., the OpenSUSE maintainers package it for OpenSUSE, Arch maintainers package it for Arch, Fedora for Fedora, etc.). If you wanted to install this software manually, you could do so in the complex manner that you've described, but that's not recommended. It's better to wait until the software is packaged up for your distribution. Cheers, Jim
