Dear All, I just upgraded to version 0.9 of network manager and the nm-connection-editor (running Debian). Since the upgrade:
a) None of my formerly defined connections are visible anymore. b) I cannot add or edit connections as a regular user. If I try to add, all boxes are greyed out. c) Connections that, as root, I define to be usable to all users without requiring a password still ask me for a password. The weird thing is that, if I reinstall the previous version of the Debian package that contains nm-connection-editor (network-manager-gnome 0.8.1), then the old connections are visible and I can edit them. (But then the whole thing does not work because of several incompatibilities). I've tried installing and reinstalling, and rebooting, to no avail. I think that nm-connection-editor (see, e.g., https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=694334#c7) should work for regular users. I also tried to add a new group and include an entry in /etc/polkit-1, as commented in https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/NetworkManager#Set_up_PolicyKit_permissions but it has not helped. And I have not been able to locate anything about changes in permissions, etc, in the docs. What can I do to recover all of my formerly defined connections and editing by non-root users?
