Comment 45 for bug 82927

This should have been fixed in

network-manager (0.6.4-6ubuntu7) feisty; urgency=low

  * 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.

    LP: #82335, #105234.

  * 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.
