not glad to see such comment

the app requires the user to choose what firewall to support for  
building: IPFW or PF.
They are in XOR and there is no reasonable default in this.

Cheng-Lung chose PF default and removed is_interactive.
A feedback request would have avoided this qui pro quo.

this used to be ".error blah"  for checking the options' XOR-ness,  
then removed because
options are also set when deinstalling/cleaning etc. Definitely  
useless, replacing with a
comment about the problem appears the best to do. Actually I dunno  
why this made its way
in the submission :)
