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

[Michael Biebl]

Hi everyone,

I looked into this issue today and the problem afaics is, that the ifupdown
parser requires for an interface to be unmanaged, also that there is a valid
connection defined in /e/n/i for that interface.
If it e.g. finds only wpa-roam, this is treated as an incomplete/invalid
connection, so the interfaces is not added to the list of well_known_interfaces.

The attached patch always adds the interface to well_known_interfaces, as soon
as it finds an iface <foo> ... line in /e/n/i.

Please test and report back.

Thanks,
Michael
