Package: network-manager Version: 0.6.4-8+b1 Severity: important this is related to #432322 I suppose.
When you are removing network-manager, the postrm should not deactivate your network connections, since the system administrator has indicated (by removing n-m) that he/she no longer wishes it to manage the network. Alternatively I suppose kicking invoke-rc.d networking restart or ifupping the interfaces n-m /was/ managing would be wise. But as it stands, removing n-m can drop your machine from the network. (As it happens, I didn't explicitly ask for n-m to be removed either, I presume some dependency changed somewhere and it was marked as automatic by aptitude, so the machine dropping off the network came as a bit of a surprise). -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.21-2-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages network-manager depends on: ii adduser 3.104 add and remove users and groups ii dbus 1.1.1-3 simple interprocess messaging syst pn dhcdbd <none> (no description available) ii hal 0.5.9.1-4 Hardware Abstraction Layer ii ifupdown 0.6.8 high level tools to configure netw pn iproute <none> (no description available) pn iputils-arping <none> (no description available) ii libc6 2.6.1-1+b1 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libdbus-1-3 1.1.1-3 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.74-1 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libgcrypt11 1.2.4-2 LGPL Crypto library - runtime libr ii libglib2.0-0 2.14.0-2 The GLib library of C routines ii libgpg-error0 1.4-2 library for common error values an ii libhal1 0.5.9.1-4 Hardware Abstraction Layer - share ii libiw29 29~pre22-1 Wireless tools - library pn libnl1-pre6 <none> (no description available) pn libnm-util0 <none> (no description available) ii lsb-base 3.1-24 Linux Standard Base 3.1 init scrip pn wpasupplicant <none> (no description available) Versions of packages network-manager recommends: pn network-manager-gnome | netwo <none> (no description available) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
