Package: network-manager

Severity: important
# /usr/sbin/NetworkManager --no-daemon

Segmentation fault
strace gives a little clue:
# strace /usr/sbin/NetworkManager --no-daemon
open("/etc/network/interfaces", O_RDONLY) = 11
fstat64(11, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=1761, ...}) = 0
mmap2(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) =

read(11, "# /etc/network/interfaces -- con"..., 4096) = 1761
--- SIGSEGV (Segmentation fault) @ 0 (0) ---
+++ killed by SIGSEGV +++
And after removing /etc/network/interfaces, it doesn't crash anymore
# mv /etc/network/interfaces{,.orig}
# /usr/sbin/NetworkManager --no-daemon

NetworkManager: <WARNING> (): Error: Can't open /etc/network/interfaces
My guess would that it crashes when parsing /etc/network/interfaces. I
won't provide the file here, since it contains sensitive information,
but can provide a copy by email on request.
