thanks a lot for the quick upload. Now that wpasupplicant 2.10 is more widely available, I've seen this issue popping up at several places. I'm not sure if it's only related to FRITZ!Boxes but those alone are extremely popular in Germany, so I would have hated if the next LTS potentially breaks WiFi for lots of users.

When you sync the changes from Debian, a few remarks on the remaining diff to the Debian package: - isc-dhcp-client Depends NetworkManager defaults to its internal dhcp client (based on sd-network) since a while. Ubuntu doesn't override that default. So either it should explicitly override that default and specify dhclient as preferred dhcp client or it should drop this dependency as Debian does (or at least demote it). - avahi-autoipd Suggests NetworkManager doesn't use avahi-autoipd anymore. See the relevant commit from 2016! https://salsa.debian.org/utopia-team/network-manager/-/commit/d701201bfd5b2d7a6bb1cc81660ae55fd4f4e36b - lto Enabling lto means significantly increased build times. Last time I checked the space savings were miniscule. That's why the Debian doesn't enable lto. - restarting NM on upgrades NM does *not* tear down Ethernet connections on restart. For WiFi connections the situation is different but keep in mind that wpasupplicant.postinst will restart its service anyway To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1967782/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
