[Bug 891299] [NEW] Toggling a network connection to off in gnome shell "panel icon" doesn't work

 

Public bug reported:

The version of libnm-glib shipped with Ubuntu is too old, this causes
the Gnome Shell's network connection manager's on/off toggle to not
work. Please see the following bug reports for more information:

http://osdir.com/ml/gnome-shell-list/2011-11/msg00006.html
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=664171
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=739035

This happens with all connections, not just the "Wired" one like in the
bug reports.

I have Ubuntu 11.10 installed (upgraded from 11.04) using the Gnome
Shell package shipped with Ubuntu, all the laterst updates applied.

I have 2 versions installed:
