Description

Persistence for NM connections is broken. See corresponding issue in Liberte

Is it really, even after most of the secrets handling was moved back to GNOME keyring, and the Wi-Fi connections back to be considered as "user" ones unless user is allowed to configure system ones (since network-manager-gnome 0.9.4.1-3)? Perhaps tweaking the policykit settings so that the amnesia user is not allowed to configure connections would be enough to workaround this?

tails-persistence-setup 1.0.2-1+wheezy1 adapts the persistent path for Wheezy. My understanding of the Debian changelog wrt. 11-user-connections.patch is that all relevant passwords should still be stored in GNOME keyring, so it should presumably all work as before. Should be tested, though.
