Title: [wily-proposed] --config option not respected any more (causes test failures) Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu: In Progress Bug description: Pretty much all NM integration tests fail on the wily-proposed version (1.0.4), as NM tears down the (fake) "remote" side of the hwsim wifi and veth interfaces. Turns out this is due to not respecting the local --config option any more, which blacklists these devices to avoid NM tearing them down at startup: $ NetworkManager --log-level=debug --debug --config=/tmp/tmpyehdrfvu/NetworkManager.conf NetworkManager-Message: <info> No config file found or given; using /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf NetworkManager[5227]: <info> Read config: /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf [...] In the Ubuntu packaging bzr I reverted most of the disabling of tests, and also tuned the timeouts back down to reasonable values. On top of that, if you change --- debian/tests/nm 2015-09-04 09:06:44 +0000 +++ debian/tests/nm 2015-09-04 09:07:05 +0000 @@ -75,7 +75,8 @@ blacklist += ';' blacklist += 'mac:%s' % f.read().strip() - conf = os.path.join(self.workdir, 'NetworkManager.conf') + #conf = os.path.join(self.workdir, 'NetworkManager.conf') + conf = '/etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf' extra_main = '' if not auto_connect: extra_main += 'no-auto-default=*\n' to work around this bug, all the tests succeed again, at least on amd64. On i386 they still fail because NM crashes right away (bug 1492126).
