[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#522085: network-manager: nm-applet doesn't start. network is not managed

[Stefano Costa]

Subject: nm-applet doesn't start. network is not managed
Package: network-manager
Version: 0.7.0.99-1
Justification: renders package unusable
Severity: grave

*** Please type your report below this line ***
As in subject, nm-applet doesn't show in the GNOME panel and the 
network is not managed (i.e. I had to use /etc/network/interfaces to
enable a wired connection).

I can't really tell what's going on. This happened before I upgraded to
nm 0.7.0.99, but with 0.7.0.99 it's just the same.

Would you please give some advice on how to retrieve usuful information
to understand this annoying bug?

Best,
Steko
