Description Martin Ebourne 2008-10-04 21:31:12 UTC
Description of problem:
/etc/NetworkManager/nm-system-settings.conf is overwritten every time the NetworkManager RPM is upgraded.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
NetworkManager-0.7.0-0.11.svn4022.4.fc9.x86_64

How reproducible:
Every time

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Edit /etc/NetworkManager/nm-system-settings.conf to read:
[main]
plugins=keyfile
2. Upgrade NetworkManager
3. /etc/NetworkManager/nm-system-settings.conf has been overwritten with:
[main]
plugins=ifcfg-fedora
  
Expected results:
Configuration file should be preserved.

Comment 1 Dan Williams 2008-10-20 02:45:21 UTC
Yeah, shouldn't be doing this even though the keyfile plugin isn't quite ready for use yet.

Comment 2 Martin Ebourne 2008-12-01 21:48:42 UTC
Any chance of a fix for this one? NetworkManager-0.7.0-0.12.svn4326.fc10 has just broken it again. Should be a simple as %config(noreplace) hopefully.

Comment 3 Martin Ebourne 2009-01-10 10:35:39 UTC
NetworkManager-0.7.0-1.git20090102.fc10 clobbered it again. What is stopping the trivial fix?
