Package: network-manager
Version: 0.9.4.0-5
Followup-For: Bug #646407
This bug is more severe than it appears. It seems that NM ends up prompting
for the user's authentication whenever the currently used network
disappears.
The problem is that this can happen at a time where there is no user at
the console, so the network connection is lost and is not recovered until
some user deal with it, even if the network was only temporary unavailable.
So there are two problems: one is requesting user authentication, even tho
the user did not anything, and the other is requesting a new network
password, even tho the network password has not changed (simply, the network
is currently down).
