Bug#746191: libnl-3: Re: libnl-3-200: wifi broken with libnl-3-200 3.2.24-1 (no IP address)

Ah! You are right; if I use the 3.2.24-2 versions the problem does not occur, but it does with the 3.2.24-1 versions. I had pulled those 3.2.24-2 packages onto my machine and thought NetworkManager was using them, but it was apparently still using the 3.2.24-1 versions. Maybe I forgot to resta

Bug#739656: vim: dot-repeated shellout commands lose their escaped options?
