Public bug reported:

NetworkManager 1.0.4 fixes a large number of potential bugs in handling
network configurations, along with letting us be up to date with the
current developments upstream (which has been an issue in previous
releases, where NM had to be kept back due to requirements on the phone
side). These requirements are not issues for the moment, so this release
is the perfect time to update NM to a the current stable and recommended
version.

It's already in -proposed now, but had multiple issues in autopkgtests
and some smaller issues with failures in unit tests which have so far
caused it to be blocked in proposed.

It has been tested for three weeks in various configurations, connecting
to wifi (open, WPA2, WPA-Enterprise), ethernet, and VPNs (openvpn). It
works properly in KDE and GNOME environments without changes to the UI
components.

Other NM components (VPNs, for example) continue to function as there
have not been substancial changes to the API.

Attached and linked are build logs, etc.
