Bug#951531: network-manager: unable to activate wired connection when network-manager manages it
Package: network-manager Version: 1.14.6-2+deb10u1 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable Dear Maintainer, * What led up to the situation? (Default Debian 10.3 installation with Plasma) I wanted NetworkManager to manage my connection. I've disabled /etc/network/interfaces like so: ``` #loopback auto lo iface lo inet loopback # #auto eno1 #allow-hotplug eno1 #iface eno1 inet dhcp ``` I've added the connection to the NetworkManager from GUI, reboot the system The NetworkManager GUI constantly loops: activating -> deactivating -> activating... journalctl: ``` Feb 17 21:06:01 EDIT kernel: e1000e: eno1 NIC Link is Up 1000 Mbps Full Duplex, Flow Control: Rx/Tx Feb 17 21:06:01 EDIT kernel: IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): eno1: link becomes ready Feb 17 21:06:01 EDIT NetworkManager[720]: [1581969961.4093] device (eno1): carrier: link connected Feb 17 21:06:01 EDIT NetworkManager[720]: [1581969961.4099] device (eno1): state change: unavailable -> disconnected (reason 'carrier-changed', sys-iface-state: 'managed') Feb 17 21:06:01 EDIT NetworkManager[720]: [1581969961.4123] manager: startup complete Feb 17 21:06:01 EDIT systemd[1]: Started Network Manager Wait Online. -- Subject: A start job for unit NetworkManager-wait-online.service has finished successfully -- Defined-By: systemd -- Support: https://www.debian.org/support -- -- A start job for unit NetworkManager-wait-online.service has finished successfully. -- -- The job identifier is 108.

Bug#951524: network-manager: Cannot connect to VPN for unmanaged wired connection: "Could not find source connection."
Package: network-manager Version: 1.14.6-2+deb10u1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer, * What led up to the situation? I want to connect to VPN Default Debian buster installation I've imported VPN connection Trying to connect yields: Feb 17 20:44:16 EDIT NetworkManager[721]: [1581968656.1998] audit: op="connection-activate" uuid="31befe8d-800a-4905-97e4-16cd0aed0c30" name="EDIT" pid=2104 uid=1000 result="fail" reason="Could not find source connection." * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? I guess it might be caused by the fact that NetworkManager doesn't manage wired connection. Yet it is still not what the user expects. Unfortunately switching the connection to be managed by NetworkManager doesn't help (the wired connection stuck in activating->deactivating loop, I'm going to submit another bug) * What was the outcome of this action? Feb 17 20:44:16 EDIT NetworkManager[721]: [1581968656.1998] audit: op="connection-activate" uuid="31befe8d-800a-4905-97e4-16cd0aed0c30" name="EDIT" pid=2104 uid=1000 result="fail" reason="Could not find source connection." * What outcome did you expect instead?
