Package: network-manager Version: 1.2.2-2 Severity: serious Justification: makes alternative network managers fail
I have been having some problems with network-manager recently (as reported in another bug report), so I thought I'd try out wicd instead. I purged NM and the related packages, but wicd would not work. I tracked down the reason: /etc/resolv.conf was still symlinked to the now non-existent file /var/run/NetworkManager/resolv.conf So when network-manager shuts down, it should revert /etc/resolv.conf to a regular file. This should also be checked when the package is removed (and unarguably when the package is purged). Best wishes, Julian
