[Bug 323816] [NEW] DHCP setup is not robust with ill-configured servers (no Internet access)

[Moisés]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: knetworkmanager

I'm using a fresh install of Kubuntu 08.10, with KNetworkManager version
1:0.7svn864988-0ubuntu1.8.10.3.

When an ill-configured DHCP server informs a gateway IP that is outside
of the subnet, no route is created (but one can normally "ping" the
gateway). As a result, Internet access is blocked.

I submitted this bug to network-manager developers, and this bug is
already resolved. Unfortunately, the code used in Kubuntu is still old.
Please read http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=569277 for
details.

I ask for an upgrade of KNetworkManager before the 09.04 release.
