Maybe this behaviour should be tied for example into one installing ubuntu-desktop package or equivalent? While it is true that for example in server machine having NetworkManager and it controlling stuff is generally not wanted behaviour, but when user install ubuntu in "not official" way, like debootstrap that is needed for "ZFS as root partition" installation currently, all user has first is base minimum setup and then if wanted to install ubuntu GUI, one uses basically "apt- get install ubuntu-desktop"... I think that should be deciding factor to have NM managing devices or not.
In any way, if NM is managing devices, an update in general should not change that, or ofcourse other way round too, status quo should stay. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1658921 Title: NetworkManager does not manage wired connection To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1658921/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
