I've been working on Networkmanager 0.7-rc1, all seems to be working fine on my laptop. Integrating nm-0.7 support in archlinux will need some changes: - networkmanager uses console/policykit, no longer the "network" group - wpa_supplicant needs to be built with dbus support - consolekit needs a scriptlet to emulate pam_console, this makes at_console in dbus working In addition to this, I want to clean up the permission mess with hal and use policykit/consolekit for that also. This should fix various bugs people reported in gnome about not being able to do things with gnome-power-manager that used to work with gnome 2.22. I don't know if other applications using hal or networkmanager are affected by this. As far as I've seen, all applications that link to libnetworkmanager should be rebuilt, the soname hasn't bumped, but the ABI is incompatible, some symbols are missing or renamed.
