Package: network-manager Version: 0.9.0-2 Severity: important NetworkManager was just installed as a Gnome dependency and it didn't correctly migrate settings from /etc/network/interfaces. The file before the package was installed:
auto lo eth0 iface lo inet loopback iface eth0 inet dhcp And after: auto lo eth0 iface lo inet loopback #NetworkManager#iface eth0 inet dhcp The problem is that now networking is not available during booting which is required for NFS-mounted home directories and LDAP user accounts. Logging in as root on the console, removing the #NetworkManager# comment and rebooting seems to fix things. Is this the correct approach (I've seen NetworkManager tell applications that they should be operating in offline mode in the past)? Is there a way to prevent NetworkManager from doing this before it's installed (I'd hate to go round all systems in our network to manually fix each and every one)?
