ConnMan 1.32
Connman 1.32 was released Monday, April 18th, 2016.
This release of ConnMan removes support for Bluez 4.x, which saw its last upstream release 3½ years ago. Bluez 5 has been supported since with ConnMan version 1.11 for a bit over three years now with all distributions providing Bluez 5 for a long time already.
With version 1.32 being mostly a bug fix release, issues fixed include:
- Support tun and tap devices for VPNs (Hendrik Donner)
- Support for iptables 1.6 (Wu Zheng)
- Support for displaying Clock API settings in connmanctl (Saurav Babu)
- Interfaces starting with ve- and vb- created by systemd have been added to the default interface blacklist (Krisztian Litkey)
- Fix DHCP issues with renewal of nameservers (Naveen Singh), timeservers, MTU (Patrik Flykt), timer removal and sending Discover after obtaining link-local address (Saurav Babu)
- Re-enable fallback nameservers when the service changes to one with no nameservers specified (Patrik Flykt)
- Properly remove P2P peers when disabling P2P technology (John Ernberg)
- Prevent wpa_supplicant memory leak by calling RemoveNetwork when the WiFi network deauthenticates ConnMan (Naveen Singh)
- Restore previous
ip_forward
value in/proc
when tethering is disabled (Patrik Flykt) and allow raw PSK key when tethering via WiFi (Jose Blanquicet) - Build-time detection of
execinfo.h
needed for optional or no backtrace implementation in uClibc and musl (Yann Morin) - Simplification of gateway selection (Patrik Flykt)
