[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#931419: network-manager: Support for multiple wired networks is confusing

[Mark Brown]

Package: network-manager
Version: 1.14.6-2
Severity: normal

On a system with multiple wired networks Network Manager displays
them separately (eg, in the system settings app I see two network
connections listed with separate settings buttons and on/off
toggles) but in actual fact there is only a single set of wired
settings and toggling one connection on toggles other wired
connections off.  Similar things happen when configuring via the
system menu.

This is not helped by the presence of a "use this connection only
for resources on its network" option (which is what I want to do
with one of the connections).
