Product: Fedora https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=923564 --- Comment #30 from Pavel Šimerda <psimerda@xxxxxxxxxx> --- (In reply to comment #29) > Pavel, > > You've followed up in the NetworkManager mailing list, however I want to > make sure the issue is clear. > > Even if we patch NetworkManager - yes or no, we'll still have to suggest the > user to restart NetworkManager. If the user will have to restart > NetworkManager, do we really want the patch? Sure we do.

It looks like your contradicting yourself blatantly which suggests there's some misunderstanding. > If someone does not perform a distribution upgrade (f18 for instance) and > updates NetworkManager with the patch and downloads NetworkManager-ssh - > things will not work until a restart of NetworkManager. > > In my opinion the patch should be applied regardless, since all the known > VPN plugins are recognized in NetworkManager dbus config file, however much > of a difference it doesn't make since the current limitations will require a > restart in some cases. It wouldn't be "clean". >From the current information I have, we're choosing between: a) It will work after restart b) It will not work at all Corrent me if I'm wrong. And also correct the information you provided. As in this situation I'm of course for #a as it will allow me to use the package, while #b won't. > Please advise what you think is the best solution. I'm afraid that if you are even thinking about not applying the patch, then there must be some confusion that you should clarify first. I can't imagine why would you want to deliver a package that doesn't work. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
