Changelog
network-manager (0.9.10.0-1) unstable; urgency=medium
* New upstream release.
* Exclude libtool .la files from list-missing.
* Update symbols files.
* Update Build-Depends as per configure.ac.
* Build and install nmtui, a curses-based interface for easier console
operation.
* Install new device plugins.
* Stop installing the nm-tool binary which was dropped upstream as it has
been replaced by the much more powerful nmcli tool.
* Stop installing the nm-dhcp-client.conf D-Bus policy. NetworkManager uses
a private D-Bus socket now to communicate with that helper, making that
file obsolete.
* Remove the obsolete /etc/dbus-1/system.d/nm-dhcp-client.conf conffile on
upgrades.
* Specify the path to the pppd and pppoe binary via the corresponding
configure switch.
* Update patches.
- Drop "Add D-Bus policy for group netdev" patch. Usage of D-Bus
"at_console" permissions has been removed upstream and access for
unprivleged users is now handled entirely with PolicyKit.
- Add patch to use symbolic links instead of hard links for
/usr/bin/nmtui-*.
- Add patch to treat virtual ethernet devices as unmanaged to avoid
interfering with VBox and VMware network interfaces.
- Refresh remaining patches.
* Create /etc/NetworkManager/conf.d/ directory which can be used to extend
the NetworkManager configuration without having to modify the
distro-provided NetworkManager.conf.
* Ship an example server.conf configuration file which can be dropped into
/etc/NetworkManager/conf.d/ to change NetworkManager's behaviour to be
more like what's expected on "traditional UNIX server" type deployments.
