firestarter config lost on upgrade

I've upgraded from fc7 to 10 and noticed that firestarter doesn't seem 
to remember its config. Also, the interface seems to be a bit different 
and so I'm not at all sure if something's amiss here. I seem to remember 
that firestarter, the first time it's started, would check existing 
i[ptables setup and start from that. However, it seems to think I've got 
a virgin box or something. And, I can only see options for loading 
"default" configurations.

My iptables are untouched from before, btw. Running "service iptables 
status" shows everything as it was before the upgrade.

Can someone point me in the right direction here? I've never been really 
good with iptables in the first place, hence, wanting to use 
firestarter. If I go ahead and start using it, though, it seems it'll 
overwrite everything I already have.
