Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: network-manager

If eth0 is assigned a static IP in /etc/network/interfaces,
then NM doesn't display nor use any system-connections defined for *other* NICs.

I include the output from trying to add a new connection:
1. I run nm-connection-editor.

2. I press the Add button, fill some static IP info, ***check the [v] Available 
to all users*** checkbox, and click Apply.
(the "Invalid setting IPv4 Settings" message is displayed while filling the dns 
server)

3. The result is that without getting any error message on the GUI, the
connection is not displayed at all. So one would think that it was
discarded; however, if I look at the file system, it's there, but it's
like NM doesn't read it at all. See the output of "sudo ls -lha
/etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/" below:


Follows the terminal output of the above steps:
