Package: network-manager Version: 0.9.0-2 Severity: wishlist Hi there!
First, I do not understand why the CLI binary is called "nmcli" (without the dash) when nm-online and nm-tool have the "nm-" prefix. This is counterintuitive, for the least. Second, AFAIK nmcli can not act as a full CLI replacement for nm-applet (or any other GUI equivalent) given that there is no way to *create* a connection, which is very bad: I do not have any panel installed, which means that I can not use network-manager. Please note that this is not #629913 and that I *want* to use network-manager (I am tired of manual configurations ;-) ), but not installing (IMHO unnecessary) GUIs. This is why I reported this bug as wishlist. BTW, I am sorry if I have reported this bug only now, feel free to adjust the version: <http://lists.debian.org/87zkn3ltyx.fsf%40gismo.pca.it> Thx, bye, Gismo / Luca -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (990, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.1.0-rc4-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages network-manager depends on: ii adduser 3.113 ii dbus 1.4.14-1 ii isc-dhcp-client 4.1.1-P1-17 ii libc6 2.13-21 ii libdbus-1-3 1.4.14-1 ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.94-4 ii libgcrypt11 1.5.0-3 ii libglib2.0-0 2.28.6-1 ii libgnutls26 2.12.10-2 ii libgudev-1.0-0 172-1 ii libnl1 1.1-7 ii libnm-glib4 0.9.0-2 ii libnm-util2 0.9.0-2 ii libpolkit-gobject-1-0 0.102-1 ii libuuid1 2.19.1-5 ii lsb-base 3.2-28 ii udev 172-1 ii wpasupplicant 0.7.3-3.1 Versions of packages network-manager recommends: pn dnsmasq-base 2.58-3 pn iptables 1.4.12-1 pn modemmanager <none> pn policykit-1 0.102-1 pn ppp <none> Versions of packages network-manager suggests: pn avahi-autoipd <none> -- Configuration Files: /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf changed: [main] plugins=ifupdown,keyfile [ifupdown] ## <http://bugs.debian.org/606268> managed=false -- no debconf information
