Hi, I've just upgraded GNOME to version 3.6 and realized that net-tools was pulled in as a requirement for the new version of networkmanager. Now I'm wondering what the current status of "net-tools" is, because according to [1] it is deprecated and I was perfectly fine without it ;). I'm not familiar with the requirements for networkmanager, so basically my question comes down to this: What is net-tools needed for and is there a way to abandon this requirement? What are the plans for the future? Thanks in advance. Furthermore I would like to thank all of you making GNOME 3.6 available for us. Probably a lot of work has gone into this, so thanks again!
