[Andreas Tille]

Package: network-manager
Version: 0.9.8.8-5
Severity: normal

Hi,

I'm running testing and yesterday I updated to the network-manager
package that just arrived in testing:

$ grep network-manager /var/log/dpkg.log

Since then I'm observing that my network connection is lost when I
close the lid of the laptop.  It does not come back when opening and
I always need to

   /etc/init.d/network-manager restart

to get back network interfaces (wired and wlan).  After switching back
to 0.9.8.0-5 of networkmanager *and* since the dependencies are
requiring this also to modemmanager 0.5.2.0-2.1 the connections are
working fine.  I'm not sure whether network-manager or modemmanager are
responsible for the problem and if you tell me what I should test to
detect the real source of it I'm fine with providing more information.

Kind regards and thanks for maintaining network-manager

       Andreas.
