Bug 525460 – net-misc/networkmanager-0.9.10.0-r1 - NetworkManager: [main.c:613] main(): failed to initialize settings storage: Could not load plugin 'ifnet': /usr/lib64/NetworkManager/libnm-settings-plugin-ifnet.so: No such file or directory

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED NEEDINFO

[Description PM 2014-10-15 05:36:03 UTC]

After updating to net-misc/networkmanager-0.9.10.0-r1 I lost network connectivity. Looking through logs I found this:

Oct 15 07:10:47 localhost NetworkManager[24686]: <error> [1413349847.969161] [main.c:613] main(): failed to initialize settings storage: Could not load plugin 'ifnet': /usr/lib64/NetworkManager/libnm-settings-plugin-ifnet.so: nie można otworzyć pliku obiektu dzielonego: Nie ma takiego pliku ani katalogu 

0.9.10.0 works fine in this regard.

Reproducible: Always

Had the same problem. After editing /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf and removing "ifnet" from plugins in [main] section, removing whole [ifnet] section and restarting networkmanager everything was back to normal.

Wasn't this message shown when building it?
