This might be SRUable, is it worth spending time on this bug to provide a patch in 12.04, given that the patch itself is pretty small and only affects ifnet/biosdevname? By this I mean, will you have time to test the resulting package in your use case, so that it can land in -updates?
My main issue with fixing this as a stable update (it *will* land in quantal regardless) is that there are very few users at the intersection of using biosdevname, and using NetworkManager -- I want to make sure we only ship a fix to a stable release for this if it can be properly tested, not just sit around in -proposed for a few months. :) If you think it's useful as a stable update, please follow http://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates#Procedure to update this bug's description with how to test, etc. Thanks in advance! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/962587 Title: When using ifnet plugin and biosdevname is enabled, NetworkManager may treat wired interfaces as wireless interfaces To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/network-manager/+bug/962587/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
