Package: network-manager Version: 0.6.3-2 Severity: normal
Hi, This bug is related to bug #355478 discussion but as it raises some problem with guessnet I open a new one. Contrary to Mickael (bug #355478) I think network-manager shouldn't conflict with ifplugd, at least not until it can handle static (non-dhcp) configurations and various profiles for these configurations. You made network-manager ignore interfaces defined in /etc/network/interfaces, that's great. ;-) The problem is that your "detection mechanism" doesn't handle configurations based on guessnet. When a wired connexion uses guessnet, it's defined in /e/n/interfaces by: mapping eth0 script /usr/sbin/guessnet-ifupdown map default: default [...] iface map1 [...] iface map2 [...] iface default [...] Thus, there's no "iface eth0..." and network-manager takes in charge this connection. Could you adapt the package to also ignore interfaces "mapped" by guessnet? Note that on my computer I added a "iface eth0..." line and now the network-manager ifplugd/guessnet cooperation works fine.
