Package: network-manager Version: 0.9.8.8-4 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
After an upgrade to network-manager 0.9.8.8-4 (from version 0.9.8.0-5), I can no longer use network-manager to start network connections unless I run its user or helper programs, such as nmcli or the nm-applet, as root. Since my system is mostly command-line-driven, I mostly use nmcli to start a network connection. When run via my regular user account, the command "nmcli c list" produces an empty list with the following error message: ** (process:26105): WARNING **: Could not create object for /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/Settings/7: No session found for uid 1000 (unknown) ** (process:26105): WARNING **: Could not create object for /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/Settings/21: No session found for uid 1000 (unknown) ** (process:26105): WARNING **: Could not create object for /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/Settings/3: No session found for uid 1000 (unknown) ** (process:26105): WARNING **: handle_property_changed: failed to update property 'available-connections' of object type NMDeviceWifi. NAME UUID TYPE TIMESTAMP-REAL Running nmcli as root via the command "sudo nmcli c list" produces the intended list of available connections. The broken behavior also extends to the act of actually starting a connection, that is, "nmcli c up id network-foo" doesn't work, but "sudo"-fied command "sudo nmcli c up id network-foo" works. Thus I suspect this is a permissions problem. Note that I start my xsessions as a regular (non-root) user via the command line and not through a login manager like gdm or lightdm. -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (900, 'testing'), (90, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.13-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_SG.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_SG.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages network-manager depends on: ii adduser 3.113+nmu3 ii dbus 1.8.0-3 ii init-system-helpers 1.18 ii isc-dhcp-client 4.2.4-7 ii libc6 2.18-4 ii libdbus-1-3 1.8.0-3 ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.102-1 ii libgcrypt11 1.5.3-4 ii libglib2.0-0 2.38.2-5 ii libgnutls26 2.12.23-13 ii libgudev-1.0-0 204-8 ii libmm-glib0 1.0.0-4 ii libnl-3-200 3.2.21-1 ii libnl-genl-3-200 3.2.21-1 ii libnl-route-3-200 3.2.21-1 ii libnm-glib4 0.9.8.8-4 ii libnm-util2 0.9.8.8-4 ii libpolkit-gobject-1-0 0.105-4 ii libsoup2.4-1 2.44.2-1 ii libsystemd-login0 204-8 ii libuuid1 2.20.1-5.7 ii lsb-base 4.1+Debian12 ii udev 204-8 ii wpasupplicant 1.1-1 Versions of packages network-manager recommends: pn crda <none> pn dnsmasq-base <none> ii iptables 1.4.21-1 ii modemmanager 1.0.0-4 ii policykit-1 0.105-4 ii ppp 2.4.5+git20130610-4 pn systemd <none> Versions of packages network-manager suggests: pn avahi-autoipd <none> -- Configuration Files: /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf changed [not included] -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
