[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#569215: please test this patch (network-manager: ignores setting of unmanaged mode)

Thu Dec 2 22:37:28 UTC 2010

I tried the patch using network-manager_0.8.1-4.debian.tar.gz network-
manager_0.8.1.orig.tar.gz on testing/squeeze, and it works for me.

The patch applied with an offset of -2 lines on both hunks in system-
settings/plugins/ifupdown/plugin.c. Then I compiled the package with "dpkg-
buildpackage -b".

I have installed the locally built packages, NetworkManager was started as a 
daemon and my wlan0 connection remained intact.
I have attached the relevant bit of /var/log/daemon.log.

To make the counter-test I have re-installed network-manager from 
packages.debian.org and the connection dropped immediately after the 
installation of the package.

Thanks for looking into this.

Thomas
