Comment 5 for bug 2003727

Wrt. comment #4:
> Apparently the renderer is still being dropped from the origin-hint file

This is the correct and expected behavior. We don't want the global "renderer: NetworkManager" stanza from 0-defaults.yaml to leak into 90-snapd-config.yaml, if not defined explicitly in the "netplan set" command. This global stanza applies to the full Netplan configuration, not just the given YAML file. As visible from the "netplan get" command.

I think the same is true for comment #3 (a non-issue): The global renderer stanza is set to "NetworkManager" so any configuration should be generated on the NM backend, if not overwritten on a per netdef basis in other files. As visible from the state that "netplan get" prints.
