network-manager 0.5.1-0ubuntu12 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

network-manager (0.5.1-0ubuntu12) dapper; urgency=low

  * Migrate to my own style of packaging.
    - Remove duplicated docs from other packages.
    - Restored debian/patches directory with patches split from diff.
    - Split nm-applet into a different package so that we can have
      different ones in the future.

  * Take the autostart nm-applet.desktop file from CVS and install it into
    the Ubuntu location so that nm-applet lives with the session.

  * 30-blacklist-devices.patch:
    - Check devices against the backend before adding them to see whether
      the backend wants us to ignore them, and if so, literally just ignore
      them.
  * 40-ubuntu-backend.patch:
    - Create an Ubuntu backend from the RedHat and Debian ones.  We don't
      need to kill anything when we start, and don't currently support
      dial-up profiles.  This includes a function to indicate that anything
      with an explicit configuration is blacklisted.
  * 50-disable-named-and-vpn-managers.patch:
    - Remove the dependency on bind9 and all attempts to tinker with
      /etc/resolv.conf.  Ubuntu's libc contains resolver patches to ensure
      changes are noticed by running applications; also our dhclient
      configuration handles writing resolv.conf itself and we're not yet
      allowing NetworkManager to manage static interfaces and VPN
      connections.
  * 60-dispatch-more-events.patch:
    - Add a DeviceDeactivated dbus event and send it when a device has
      definitely finished coming down.  Modify NetworkManagerDispatcher
      to listen for these new events and run scripts with the pre-up and
      post-down events for them.
  * 65-dispatcher-script-dir.patch:
    - Change the dispatcher script directory to point to
      /usr/share/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d rather than something under /etc.
    - Adjust manpage to match
    - Ship a default script in the dispatcher.d directory to run the user
      scripts under /etc/network/if-*.d
