Bug Description
Binary package hint: network-manager
If the nm-applet is right-clicked to edit connections, and a mobile broadband connection is edited so that it is available to all users, then rather than adjust the existing connection, the network manager adds a second one with identical name and settings, available to all users. The original connection is still present, but it redundant and may confuse users. Interestingly, setting this single-user connection to available to all again replaces the duplicate rather than creating another. Deleting the original connection does not impact the ability to use the duplicate.
