Package: network-manager Version: 0.9.4.0-6 Severity: grave I just installed a new laptop using wheezy's d-i. I do have IPv6 on the network and as a result d-i did output supplementary entries in /etc/network/interfaces.
However NetworkManager garbled them and the result is a file that ifup doesn't parse. The net result is that the loopback interface is not configured... and random things that don't work with hard to debug failures. $ cat /etc/network/interfaces # This file describes the network interfaces available on your system # and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5). # The loopback network interface auto lo iface lo inet loopback # The primary network interface allow-hotplug eth0 #NetworkManager#iface eth0 inet dhcp # This is an autoconfigured IPv6 interface #NetworkManager#iface eth0 inet6 manual up ip link set eth0 up down ip link set eth0 down Either NM needs to learn those new entries or we need to find a definitive solution... -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.5-trunk-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages network-manager depends on: ii adduser 3.113+nmu3 ii dbus 1.6.2-2 ii dpkg 1.16.8 ii isc-dhcp-client 4.2.4-2 ii libc6 2.13-35 ii libdbus-1-3 1.6.2-2 ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.100-1 ii libgcrypt11 1.5.0-3 ii libglib2.0-0 2.33.12+really2.32.3-2 ii libgnutls26 2.12.20-1 ii libgudev-1.0-0 175-7 ii libnl-3-200 3.2.7-4 ii libnl-genl-3-200 3.2.7-4 ii libnl-route-3-200 3.2.7-4 ii libnm-glib4 0.9.4.0-6 ii libnm-util2 0.9.4.0-6 ii libpolkit-gobject-1-0 0.105-1 ii libuuid1 2.20.1-5.2 ii lsb-base 4.1+Debian7 ii udev 175-7 ii wpasupplicant 1.0-2 Versions of packages network-manager recommends: ii crda 1.1.2-1 ii dnsmasq-base 2.63-3 ii iptables 1.4.14-3 ii modemmanager 0.5.2.0-2 ii policykit-1 0.105-1 ii ppp 2.4.5-5.1+b1 Versions of packages network-manager suggests: ii avahi-autoipd 0.6.31-1 -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
