[Mageia-dev] PING for bug 2160

[Frank Griffin]

Could someone please review https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2160 ?

The bug has been confirmed by others, but has been outstanding for over 
2 months with no improvement.

I really think a decision needs to be made here.  If we don't have the 
expertise to fix NM, and if upstream won't, then I'd like us to 
reevaluate why it is in the distro at all.  Apparently there are many 
wireless devices that NetworkManager can't handle, and by default, it is 
not enabled for wired devices, so I question why it's needed.

Perhaps it should be moved to testing for those hardy souls for which it 
is useful, but I really can't see Mageia 2 going out the door with this 
level of wireless breakage.
