Hi!

I used to have NM 0.9.8.10 together with dhclient. Now I upgraded to NM
1.0.10 together with internal dhcp client. Old system had very cumbersome
network up sequence in order to preserve dhcp provided IP. Both set-ups
have also avahi/avahi-auto-ip running for providing IPv4LL addresses trying
to provide "known" IP in case no DHCP server is available. So, I try to
preserve both eth0 and eth0:avahi interfaces. This seems a problem with
this new set-up. Wired interface starts always up due to eth0:avahi/avahi
server even if cable is unplugged with the new set-up reaching activated
-state at the end. Therefore, cable plugging does not produce unavailable
-> disconnected event and interface does not get truly activated.
NetworkManager seems providing "<info>  (eth0): link connected" message.

Everything is fine if I start connection having cable connected. Then
proper events are generated both when plugging and unplugging cable.
Should, I now use nm-dispatcher for starting up/shutting down avahi
services?

Thanks,
Matti
