ebox-firewall fails to configure

[David]

Binary package hint: ebox-firewall

After getting ebox-network to install (bug #127745) I tried to install ebox-firewall. I get the following error during installation.

Setting up ebox-firewall (0.9.3-0ubuntu3) ...
firewall is not a valid module name
invoke-rc.d: initscript ebox, action "firewall" failed.
dpkg: error processing ebox-firewall (--configure):
 subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 2
Errors were encountered while processing:
 ebox-firewall
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

Could you please check if you have a stale gconfd-2 owned by ebox
running?

Yes, that was the case. If I install all the pieces at once, there
are no problems. If I install a piece then launch the web app, the
gconf process hangs and prevents additional pieces from being
installed (configured).
