Description:

This update for NetworkManager provides the following fixes:

  • Change NetworkManager so that after spawning netconfig it lets it exit by itself instead of killing it after 2000ms. This prevents NetworkManager from rewriting /etc/resolv.conf. (bsc#960153)
  • Make sure addresses with valid leases are used even if the server is not online. (bsc#1103477)
