* 21_manual_means_always_online.diff:
The previous version of this patch (ubuntu5) made a change to nm-applet
that would assume the state was disconnected if the device list was empty.
This didn't work since the device list is always empty on start because
the status is obtained first.
This was guarding against having the connected state with no devices,
which broke later assertions. Change the patch to correct those
assertions instead; a connected state with no active device will now
display the wired icon with a "Manual network configuration" tooltip.
* 05-debian_backend.patch:
Revert change in ubuntu3 that commented out the blacklisting of
devices listed in /etc/network/interfaces with more exotic configuration
than just inet dhcp. This was done by the above patch in ubuntu5, it
seems silly to do it there, better to do it in the original patch.
* 22_manual_config_available_when_connected.patch:
Display the "Manual configuration" menu option when we have no devices,
but are connected; since that means some number of blacklisted devices
exist. Don't display the "No network devices" message in that case.

Please report back if you still have this problem with this version.
This should have been fixed in
