Description Markus Rathgeb 2012-03-07 10:44:20 UTC 
insinto /etc/NetworkManager
newins "${FILESDIR}/nm-system-settings.conf-ifnet" nm-system-settings.conf

should be changed to

insinto /etc/NetworkManager
newins "${FILESDIR}/nm-system-settings.conf-ifnet" NetworkManager.conf


https://live.gnome.org/NetworkManager/SystemSettings
The keyfile plugin uses the nm-system-settings.conf file (0.7 and 0.8.0) or NetworkManager.conf (0.8.1 and later) for configuration of unmanaged devices.

man 5 nm-system-settings.conf
nm-system-settings.conf is a deprecated configuration file for NetworkManager (5). While this file can still be used, NetworkManager now defaults to reading the config file <SYSCONFDIR>/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf instead, falling back to nm-system-settings.conf if NetworkManager.conf does not exist.


Reproducible: Always
