=======================================================
network-manager-applet-1.0.4
Overview of changes since network-manager-applet-1.0.2
=======================================================
This is a new stable release of network-manager-applet. Notable changes
include:
• Setting MTU for a bond device is now supported.
• Connecting to a wireless network from the NetworkManager applet no
longer results in an attempt to create system-wide connections. This
fixes the ability to connect to a wireless network for non-privileged
user.
• The master interface name is used instead of master connection UUID
for slave connections created with nm-connection-editor. This fixes
compatibility of the ifcfg configuration files with the legacy network
service.
• It is now possible to specify an interface name instead of a MAC
address when editing a connection using nm-connection-editor.
• The WWAN connections now have IPv6 enabled by default.
• libnm-gtk includes functions for password storage selection, which
eases implementation of password GUI for VPN plugins and other users.
