Package: network-manager
Version: 0.9.8.0-5
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,
                        I have multiple configurations for both wireless
and wired interfaces: since upgrading to jessie, every time my pc reboots
or wakes up from sleep it has forgotten which one of them was the last
connected network, and tries to connect a random (usually incorrect) one.
The user has then to select the proper connection manually.  Otherwise the
computer would usually remain disconnected from the net.

This is a regression compared to the wheezy version 0.9.4.1-5.

I think this is unrelated to
#632850 (now the ethernet adapter is recognized correctly, just a wrong
         configuration is applied to it)
#692004 (different/opposite behavior)

The maintainer may wish to raise the severity, as in certain cases this may
lead to data loss, e.g. on a computer whose display/graphic card fails.
With the previous correct behavior, user could have her computer connect
automatically to the last used wireless or wired network and access her
data through the net. The current behavior would instead leave the machine
disconnected and data unretriavable (without physically removing pieces of
hardware such as the HD).

Thank you in advance for fixing!
All the best,
                                Nick
