-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2010-8052 2010-05-06 02:06:44 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : NetworkManager Product : Fedora 13 Version : 0.8.0 Release : 12.git20100504.fc13 URL : http://www.gnome.org/projects/NetworkManager/ Summary : Network connection manager and user applications Description : NetworkManager attempts to keep an active network connection available at all times. It is intended only for the desktop use-case, and is not intended for usage on servers. The point of NetworkManager is to make networking configuration and setup as painless and automatic as possible. If using DHCP, NetworkManager is _intended_ to replace default routes, obtain IP addresses from a DHCP server, and change nameservers whenever it sees fit. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: This update fixes issues with IPv6 connectivity (including configurations that disable IPv4 completely), handling of WEP passphrases in system-wide connections, and various crashes of the network applet. This update also provides more robust behavior in dual-stack networks, allowing one of IPv4 or IPv6 configuration to fail as long as the other completes. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #530670 - NM does not add IPv6 nameservers learned from SLAAC to resolv.conf https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=530670 [ 2 ] Bug #538499 - IPv6 support not enabled by default (release notes says otherwise) https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=538499 [ 3 ] Bug #585214 - use DEVTYPE to ignore WWAN ethernet devices https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=585214 [ 4 ] Bug #581718 - Doesn't properly store WEP passphrase in system wireless profile https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=581718 [ 5 ] Bug #582938 - [abrt] crash in NetworkManager-gnome-1:0.7.998-2.git20100106.fc12: Process /usr/bin/nm-applet was killed by signal 11 (SIGSEGV) https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=582938 [ 6 ] Bug #582428 - [abrt] crash in NetworkManager-gnome-1:0.7.998-2.git20100106.fc12: Process /usr/bin/nm-applet was killed by signal 11 (SIGSEGV) https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=582428 [ 7 ] Bug #585405 - [abrt] crash in NetworkManager-gnome-1:0.8.0-6.git20100408.fc13: Process /usr/bin/nm-connection-editor was killed by signal 11 (SIGSEGV) https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=585405 [ 8 ] Bug #567978 - Unable to activate network in loader with [*] Enable IPv6 support https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=567978 [ 9 ] Bug #588192 - RA-learned nameservers flaps in and out of /etc/resolv.conf https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=588192 [ 10 ] Bug #587836 - IPv6 Link local doesn't work as advertised https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=587836 [ 11 ] Bug #588814 - IPv4-only connections fail in NetworkManager-0.8.0-11.git20100503 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=588814 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
