-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2009-13165 2009-12-16 00:18:12 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : NetworkManager Product : Fedora 12 Version : 0.7.997 Release : 2.git20091214.fc12 URL : http://www.gnome.org/projects/NetworkManager/ Summary : Network connection manager and user applications Description : NetworkManager attempts to keep an active network connection available at all times. It is intended only for the desktop use-case, and is not intended for usage on servers. The point of NetworkManager is to make networking configuration and setup as painless and automatic as possible. If using DHCP, NetworkManager is _intended_ to replace default routes, obtain IP addresses from a DHCP server, and change nameservers whenever it sees fit. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: This update includes fixes for various crashes, mobile broadband connections and devices, ifcfg file handling, 802.1x certificates, and system connection activation. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Mon Dec 14 2009 Dan Williams <d...@redhat.com> - 0.7.997-2.git20091214 - core: fix recognition of standalone 802.1x private keys - applet: clean notification text to ensure it passes libnotify validation * Mon Dec 7 2009 Dan Williams <d...@redhat.com> - 0.7.997-1 - core: remove haldaemon from initscript dependencies (rh #542078) - core: handle PEM certificates without an ending newline (rh #507315) - core: fix rfkill reporting for ipw2x00 devices - core: increase PPPoE timeout to 30 seconds - core: fix re-activating system connections with secrets - core: fix crash when deleting automatically created wired connections - core: ensure that a VPN's DNS servers are used when sharing the VPN connection - ifcfg-rh: support routes files (rh #507307) - ifcfg-rh: warn when device will be managed due to missing HWADDR (rh #545003) - ifcfg-rh: interpret DEFROUTE as never-default (rh #528281) - ifcfg-rh: handle MODE=Auto correctly - rpm: fix rpmlint errors - applet: don't crash on various D-Bus and other errors (rh #545011) (rh #542617) - editor: fix various PolicyKit-related crashes (rh #462944) - applet+editor: notify user that private keys must be protected * Fri Nov 13 2009 Dan Williams <d...@redhat.com> - 0.7.996-7.git20091113 - nm: better pidfile handing (rh #517362) - nm: save WiFi and Networking enabled/disabled states across reboot - nm: fix crash with missing VPN secrets (rh #532084) - applet: fix system connection usage from the "Connect to hidden..." dialog - applet: show Bluetooth connections when no other devices are available (rh #532049) - applet: don't die when autoconfigured connections can't be made (rh #532680) - applet: allow system administrators to disable the "Create new wireless network..." menu item - applet: fix missing username connecting to VPNs the second time - applet: really fix animation stuttering - editor: fix IP config widget tooltips - editor: allow unlisted countries in the mobile broadband wizard (rh #530981) - ifcfg-rh: ignore .rpmnew files (rh #509621) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #542078 - NM starting too late due to erroneous hal dependency https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=542078 [ 2 ] Bug #507315 - Incorrectly rejects PEM files with missing trailing newline https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=507315 [ 3 ] Bug #507307 - [enh] support routes in ifcfg files https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=507307 [ 4 ] Bug #545003 - NetworkManager keeps controlling an interface inspite of NM_MANAGED=no https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=545003 [ 5 ] Bug #528281 - NM does not completely handle default routing https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=528281 [ 6 ] Bug #545011 - [applet] crash in find_active_device() https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=545011 [ 7 ] Bug #542617 - [abrt] crash detected in NetworkManager-gnome-1:0.7.996-6.git20091021.fc12 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=542617 [ 8 ] Bug #541314 - unable to reconnect to mobile 3G network via Network Manager with previous manual disconnection https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=541314 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
