> Well, it would be good to confirm whether this is the case currently or not.

Hi

Finally had time to test this again.

I deleted my Wifi configuration from my laptop. The "Waiting for network connection..." text doesn't come back anymore.

I also had one more laptop that wasn't yet updated to 11.10. This was a good reason to update it. In this case the "Waiting for network connection..." text didn't appear at any point (also some other upgrade errors unrelated to this bug that I've seen didn't happen, guess it was my lucky day).

I have previously updated 2 laptops to Kubuntu 11.10 and in those cases the erroneous behavior went away after configuring a system wifi connection, as I described above - just wanted to repeat that as a useful fix for people that may read this.

I'm no longer able to reproduce the bug, so I suppose for my part I have nothing more to contribute. But it did happen 2 out of 3 upgrades.
