Last night's update brought me Name : NetworkManager Relocations: (not relocatable) Version : 0.7.0 Vendor: Fedora Project Release : 2.git20090207.fc10 Build Date: Sat 07 Feb 2009 02:39:06 PM GMT Install Date: Tue 10 Feb 2009 02:39:24 PM GMT Build Host: x86-6.fedora.phx.redhat.com Group : System Environment/Base Source RPM: NetworkManager-0.7.0-2.git20090207.fc10.src.rpm Before that I had been using knetworkmanager with NetworkManager-gnome uninstalled.
