** Description changed: + [Impact] + Ubuntu users installing from the d-i installer (mini.iso) to set up a desktop, as well as users with complex setups for netplan, managed by both networkd and NetworkManager in multiple files. + + [Test case] + 1) Install ubuntu from mini.iso. + 2) Configure the system normally through the installer up to package selection. + 3) Add GNOME Desktop to package selection and continue install. + 4) After reboot and logging in, check whether the network device configured (wired or wifi) is showing in the GNOME Shell network drop-down at the top of the screen. + + Without the patch, networkd manages the interface and thus it is ignored + by NM, and doesn't show in GNOME Shell. + + With the fix, NetworkManager manages the interface, it is brought up + correctly and shows in GNOME Shell. + + [Regression potential] + This fixes a regression in updates for bionic & cosmic, and a regression that was present in Disco at release time. Since the default renderer effectively changes in this case if there are multiple configuration files listing a different global renderer (the last one configured will be the global default); care should be taken to make sure the interfaces are correctly brought up at boot time. + + This really only affects very specific desktop installs, since they may + have both NetworkManager and systemd installed from the beginning. The + default global renderer is always networkd, so the impact of this is + limited to systems where both: multiple YAML configuration files are + used with netplan; and both NetworkManager and networkd are used as + renderer for different network devices. This tends to only happen if + people have installed from the mini.iso image or if they have made the + conscious decision to write multiple YAML files and use different + renderers for different devices. + + --- + Ubuntu release: 18.10 (cosmic) I verified this is the culprit after a downgrade to 0.42.2. When I go to the Wifi settings of gnome-control-center I get a 'wifi adapter not found' message, despite my card appearing in `lspci` and the wifi interface appearing in ifconfig. My wifi adapter is an Intel Advanced-N 6200, if that is of any help. I can provide more details if needed. EDIT: I've verified that I can add my wifi credentials to /etc/netplan/01-netcfg.yml and after a reboot the wifi connects successfully. The only thing not working is the Gnome integration.
