[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#643687: After upgrade to 0.9, the "Auto eth0" connection went away

[Ralf Jung]

Package: network-manager
Version: 0.9.0-2
Followup-For: Bug #643687

I have the same problem: After updating NM to 0.9, normal DHCP-based wired
connections stopped working. I had to manually create a DHCP-based wired
connection to fix that - which definitely classifies as bug, in a default
continuation, no action by the user should be necessary to connect to a wired
network with DHCP available.
The problem is in network-manager itself, since I use the KDE Plasma widget,
not the gnome applet.
