Bug Description
Please consider syncing the following changes from Debian
https:/
For more background see https:/
Seeing that Ubuntu 22.04 will ship wpasupplicant 2.10 it would be good to have this patch.
When you sync the changes from Debian, a few remarks on the remaining diff to the Debian package:
- isc-dhcp-client Depends
NetworkManager defaults to its internal dhcp client (based on sd-network) since a while. Ubuntu doesn't override that default. So either it should explicitly override that default and specify dhclient as preferred dhcp client or it should drop this dependency as Debian does (or at least demote it).
- avahi-autoipd Suggests
NetworkManager doesn't use avahi-autoipd anymore. See the relevant commit from 2016!
https:/
- lto
Enabling lto means significantly increased build times. Last time I checked the space savings were miniscule. That's why the Debian doesn't enable lto.
- restarting NM on upgrades
NM does *not* tear down Ethernet connections on restart. For WiFi connections the situation is different but keep in mind that wpasupplicant.
Thanks for the report Michael!
