[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#856919: network-manager: ignores high priority of wired connection

[Hendrik Tews]

Package: network-manager
Version: 1.6.2-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

I have a wired and a wireless connections configured. The wired
has autoconnect-priority=100 and the wired has
autoconnect-priority=50. However, when I set both connections to
autoconnect=true, network-manager will enable both connections
when both are available. I would have expected that it only
enables the connection with the highest priority.

Hendrik
