[Touch-packages] [Bug 1458322] Re: NetworkManager doesn't hide virtual interfaces (e.g. Docker, VMWare)
I'd much rather have something similar to that cinnamon fix as it actually seems to check if the device is listed as unmanaged. The patch I've supplied above (based on the earlier patch by Campbell Vertesi) doesn't seem to do that. Doesn't matter if my vmnet8 (or similar interface) is in the keyfile unmanaged-devices list or not. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1458322 Title: NetworkManager doesn't hide virtual interfaces (e.g. Docker, VMWare) Status in One Hundred Papercuts: Confirmed Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Previously in Ubuntu 14.04 NetworkManager hid the veth interfaces that were created by Docker.
