Public bug reported: Binary package hint: whereami
Installed whereami and uninstalled again using Adept Manager. It left the hook script /etc/dhcp3/dhclient-exit-hooks.d/whereami This caused NetworkManager to go into an infinite loop. I'm reproducing the error here so people know the symptoms and don't spend ages trying to troubleshoot NetworkManager when its not the problem. The hook script should be removed on clean up. I don't think its a duplicate of https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2044 as it is still here for a start. $ uname -r 2.6.24-18-generic $ cat /etc/issue Ubuntu 8.04 $ apt-cache show whereami Version: 0.3.34 Filename: pool/universe/w/whereami/whereami_0.3.34_all.deb Size: 62530 MD5sum: aa096f7f1dbab4624780d4370474f5a5 SHA1: f3af3c33434b5e5bd9d7751889f1f3b37457ae41 SHA256: 9bc4a5c8cb63b171b0f223c98d7fb1cc923c1953388e02be735ab8d267c9bf24 *Removed some* NetworkManager: <info> Activation (eth0) Stage 2 of 5 (Device Configure) complete.
