Hi,

Among the 81 upgrades from yesterday I can see:
[UPGRADE] firmware-iwlwifi 0.28 -> 0.29
[UPGRADE] firmware-linux 0.28 -> 0.29
[UPGRADE] firmware-linux-nonfree 0.28 -> 0.29
[UPGRADE] libnm-glib-vpn1 0.8.2-5 -> 0.8.2-6
[UPGRADE] libnm-glib2 0.8.2-5 -> 0.8.2-6
[UPGRADE] libnm-util1 0.8.2-5 -> 0.8.2-6
[UPGRADE] network-manager 0.8.2-5 -> 0.8.2-6

No network-manager-gnome or anything related to the gui side of NM was 
in the upgrade. Restarting nm-applet doesn't fix this (and didn't fix it 
in other cases.

Thank you,
Alex
