Package: network-manager
Version: 0.8.1-5
Severity: normal

My /etc/network/interfaces contains:

---
# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).

# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

# The primary network interface
allow-hotplug eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp

# noauto dsl-provider
# iface dsl-provider inet ppp
# pre-up /sbin/ifconfig eth0 up # line maintained by pppoeconf
# provider dsl-provider

noauto wlan0
iface wlan0 inet dhcp
# home:
        wpa-ssid secret
        wpa-psk secret
---

My /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf contains:

---
[main]
plugins=ifupdown,keyfile

[ifupdown]
managed=false
---

I would expect this to mean that Network-Manager would not touch my wlan0
interface. Nevertheless, if I run "ifup wlan0", then I can get no connection to
the network. This is an excerpt of my dmesg, which shows that a connection is
made and then immediately dropped again, for some reason (=3?):

If I kill network-manager, then I can connect to the network without any
problems. So for some reason, the "managed=false" option does not work. Since
network-manager is started by default, this is pretty annoying.

Fixed in 0.8.1-6:

network-manager (0.8.1-6) unstable; urgency=low

  * debian/patches/40-umanaged-interfaces.patch
    - For devices to be marked unmanaged, do not require a valid connection
      configuration. (Closes: #569215)
  * debian/patches/50-bridge-interfaces.patch
    - Parse bridge configurations in /etc/network/interfaces and add
      interfaces defined via bridge_ports to well_known_interfaces. This
      allows to mark those interfaces as unmanaged if managed=false.
      The "all" keyword and regexes are not supported and simply skipped.
      (Closes: #530335)
