Package: network-manager
Version: 0.9.2.0-1
Severity: important

Hi!

network-manager replaced my working /etc/resolv.conf file with an file
looking like this:

eckert:~# cat /etc/resolv.conf 
# Generated by NetworkManager
eckert:~# 

It can never be good to replace resolv.conf with an empty config...

My network configuration is quite simple, just a static IP-address
with a single gateway. The gateway is also DNS-server.

I got network-manager installed by hard dependency from gnome3. I
do not use gnome myself, but other users on the computer do.

/ Anders
