[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#758498: network-manager: Fails to connect to usb0 interface

[Helmut Schreiber]

Package: network-manager
Version: 0.9.10.0-1.1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

I am using an Android smartphone via teethering as my Internet router (either via USB or WLAN).

Since version 0.9.10.0-1 network-manager fails to connect using the usb0 interface. This does work in version 0.9.8.10-4.

I am using the KDE-Plasma applet and when connecting the phone to the USB-Port nm tries to connect but then deactivates the interface.
The older working version of nm establishes an internet connection using usb0.
   
Attached you will find relevant parts of the syslog. Nm clearly tries to setup usb0 but fails.

Kind regards
Helmut
