Package: network-manager
Version: 0.9.5.95-1
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch
Dear Maintainer,
Unfortunately network-manager is required by gnome to be installed at the
moment.
I am asking the Debian Gnome team if this can be fixed, but it might also
be nice to be able to disable network manager for systems which
are configured in different ways.
Please see my init file patch below
