Title:
NM fails to make nameserver addresses available during upgrade from
9.04 to 9.10.
Status in “flashplugin-nonfree” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Binary package hint: flashplugin-nonfree
I was upgrading from 9.04 to 9.10 (release candidate) using "sudo do-
release-upgrade -d". Everything worked fine except for the flash
upgrade.
As packages are initially downloaded, then upgraded, an internet
connection does not appear to be necessitated during the upgrade
process, and the configuration can change. This normally does not
cause a problem, but flash must download extra data during it's actual
install process. In my case when it tried to do this it could no
longer resolve a site on the internet. I checked my resolv.conf and
no DNS servers were listed. This, unsurprisingly, was corrected on
reboot.
This may or may not be associated with me having DNS servers provided
by an OpenVPN connection as well as via DHCP. The resolv.conf is
replaced without restarting networking, so DNS servers are effectively
lost. (accordingly, this may be a bug against Network-Manager)
The flash package should either have downloaded the extra data at teh
start, or been postponed until the system had been rebooted.
