Hi Dan,

As mentioned here:

https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=487496

(comment 1)

"The update to 0.9.8.6 changed the settings backend from ifnet to
keyfile for systemd users."

I think Gentoo devs decided to change it that way. If I add ifnet then I
get:

Could not load plugin
'ifnet': /usr/lib64/NetworkManager/libnm-settings-plugin-ifnet.so:
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I guess gentoo does not even compile it anymore for 0.9.8.6 and
onwards...

But is my problem really about that? Running 0.9.8.4 with ifnet exhibits
the same problem I mentioned before with 0.9.8.6 using keyfile plugin.
