[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#755015: Fix for this issue

[micah anderson]

Hi,

I'm having a similar issue. If I use openvpn externally, it will push a
default route, but network-manager immediately removes that route. This
is new behavior in 0.9.10, in fact I confirmed that by trying the
previous version by pulling packages from snapshots, previous versions
did not have this problem.

I spent quite a bit of time debugging this issue with upstream NM people
on their IRC channel, in the end they came up with a patch that was
committed upstream (in git it is: the following hash: 
06703c1670d0f96834b268920b09792e22fdb4c4)

I tested this change, and it worked well for me. 

Considering that this effectively breaks all OpenVPN setups that are not
using network-manager's built-in VPN mechanisms, I would really like to
get this change into Debian without having to wait for the next major
release of NM. If you are planning on doing an upload in the near
future, could you cherry-pick this change? If you aren't planning on
doing one any time soon, would you mind if I NMU with this change?

thanks for maintaining network manager!
micah
