Auto connection of network-setup-control for network-manager snap

abeato · December 18, 2019, 4:42pm

We would like to have the network-setup-control interface auto-connected for the network-manager snap. The NM snap calls now the netplan dBus interface to get the network services re-started and have NM as the default renderer.

+1 for auto-connection.

@reviewers - can others vote on this?

+1 for auto-connection. Makes sense.

It’s the raison d’être for network-manager and it comes from a known publisher. +1 from me.

This appears to have already been granted - the snap declaration already includes this from what I can see.

Yes, I see in Request: autoconnect of `network-setup-control` for network-manager snap this was granted and I can confirm it is already in the snap declaration:
