Testing help needed: Network Manager Bionic SRU Regression

[Till Kamppeter]

Hi,

to solve several problems with Network Manager in Bionic, an update from 
upstream version 1.10.6 to 1.10.14 was done as an SRU, conducted in this 
Launchpad bug report:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1754671

This SRU (together with an already published SRU of systemd) is 
especially supposed to let the correct DNS being used when a VPN is used 
only for servers in the VPN. The fix got verified (meaning that the 
reproducer shown in the bug description does not suffer the bug any 
more) and the SRU started to get rolled out to -updates. Soon after that 
some users reported regressions and the roll-out got stopped.

The regression bug reports are here:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1829913
    openconnect VPN is not propagating internal DNS anymore

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1829566
    network-manager 1.10.14-0ubuntu2 ignores systemd-resolved configured
    dns

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1829838
    1.10.14-0ubuntu2 breaks DNS propagation from VPN

To try to find out what happened I have asked all the reporters for 
further information but did not get answers, except with bug 1829566 but 
the user did not answer everything.

For me it looks like that only very few users suffered regressions in 
very special cases, as there were not more bug reports coming up and 
these bug reports did not accumulate large amounts of me-too votes and 
duplicates.

I asked Brian Murray (Tuesday's shift of SRU team) on #ubuntu-release 
and he tell that it is better to ask for help and further testing on the 
Ubuntu mailing lists instead of retrying the roll-out to -updates.

So I would like to ask you whether you could help with testing the 
1.10.14-0ubuntu2 package of network-manager on Bionic (from -proposed) 
or give some helpful hint.

Thanks in advance

    Till
