Hi release team, I'd like to upload a few fixes for network-manager in the upcoming point release. Please let me know which of the following patches you consider appropriate. I'd then prepare the debdiff for final review or upload directly, whatever you prefer. 1/ http://git.debian.org/?p=pkg-utopia/network-manager.git;a=commitdiff;h=9c7540deb1bd5356a12caa41dd21f898316b9a72 Ifupdown internally converts hyphens to underscores, this means it supports both bridge-ports and bridge_ports. The linked patch updates the ifupdown plugin to support both variants. Patch has been sent upstream and accepted. Fixes #609831, severity important 2/ http://git.debian.org/?p=pkg-utopia/network-manager.git;a=commitdiff;h=e4568b525190677213f0a3290219145c32a6c146 The migration script did not properly quote the interface when disabling an entry in /etc/network/interfaces. This could lead to a broken /e/n/i file. Patch has been sent upstream and accepted. Fixes #612247, severity serious 3/ http://git.debian.org/?p=pkg-utopia/network-manager.git;a=commitdiff;h=cb111f43604c48ad817c93721dc3a1d37266dbd5 This patch correctly handles device removal when properties are unreadable. This is a highly annoying bug when you plug/unplug network devices, as you had to restart network-manager without this patch. Patch is cherry-picked from upstream Git. Fixes #605570, severity important. 4/ http://git.debian.org/?p=pkg-utopia/network-manager.git;a=commitdiff;h=1760e95bcd76dafd48afe3043d64ea72f96d7a24 Newer versions of dnsmasq validate the option parameters more strictly. Instead of passing a bogus file name simply use --conf-file without additional parameters. Without this patch, Ad-Hoc mode for wireless connections is broken. Patch is cherry-picked from upstream Git. Fixes: #615082, severity important Please note: The version of dnsmasq in squeeze is not affected by this behaviour, so this would be more of a good-to-have in case of people using backports of dnsmasq.
