Package: network-manager
Version: 0.9.4.0-5
Severity: important

Hi

Setting a MAC with macchanger, I noticed loosing the new MAC in favour of the
permanent one. This is caused by NM when switching off the device its MAC is
silently changed to the permanent one and when reactivating the interface the
permanent MAC is used.

This is in no way acceptable as there might be several reason to hide your
permanent MAC.

This happens only with wireless interfaces. No problem with wired interfaces.

Cheers Colliar
