Package: network-manager Version: 0.6.6-2 Severity: normal n-m was unable to connect to an access point. After trying for a while, the notification area icon disappeared. Then I noticed the following in the system log:

It would be nice if n-m shipped a -dbg package so that the automatically-captured backtraces would be more useful. :) -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (530, 'testing'), (520, 'unstable'), (510, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) 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 3.110 add and remove users and groups ii dbus 1.2.1-3 simple interprocess messaging syst ii dhcdbd 3.0-4 D-Bus interface to the ISC DHCP cl ii hal 0.5.11-5 Hardware Abstraction Layer ii ifupdown 0.6.8+nmu1 high level tools to configure netw ii iproute 20080725-2 networking and traffic control too ii libc6 2.7-14 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libdbus-1-3 1.2.1-3 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.76-1 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libgcrypt11 1.4.1-1 LGPL Crypto library - runtime libr ii libglib2.0-0 2.16.6-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgpg-error0 1.4-2 library for common error values an ii libhal1 0.5.11-5 Hardware Abstraction Layer - share ii libiw29 29-1.1 Wireless tools - library ii libnl1 1.1-2 library for dealing with netlink s ii libnm-util0 0.6.6-2 network management framework (shar ii lsb-base 3.2-20 Linux Standard Base 3.2 init scrip ii wpasupplicant 0.6.4-2 Client support for WPA and WPA2 (I Versions of packages network-manager recommends: ii network-manager-gnome 0.6.6-2 network management framework (GNOM network-manager suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
