nm09 branch : infinite PropertiesChanged signal on adding new connection

[Rajeesh K Nambiar]

Hi,

I've built today's nm09 branch on Fedora 15
(NetworkManager-0.8.9997-1.git20110531). Everything seems to work
(including VPN, WiFi, Secrets...), but when a new connection (tested
with WiFi/VPN) is added in KCM module, I can't select any connection.
Selected item is unselected immediately. Lamarque mentioned that this
might be caused only when connections are continuously updated. Here
is the output of "dbus-monitor --system" while adding a new adhoc wifi
connection:

signal sender=:1.0 -> dest=(null destination) serial=5133
path=/org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/Settings/6;
interface=org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.Settings.Connection;
member=Updated
signal sender=:1.0 -> dest=(null destination) serial=5134
path=/org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/Settings;
interface=org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.Settings;
member=PropertiesChanged
array [
dict entry(
string "UnmanagedSpecs"
variant array [
]
)
]
signal sender=:1.0 -> dest=(null destination) serial=5135
path=/org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/Settings;
interface=org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.Settings;
member=PropertiesChanged
array [
dict entry(
string "UnmanagedSpecs"
variant array [
]
)
]
signal sender=:1.0 -> dest=(null destination) serial=5136
path=/org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/Settings/6;
interface=org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.Settings.Connection;
member=Updated
signal sender=:1.0 -> dest=(null destination) serial=5137
path=/org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/Settings;
interface=org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.Settings;
member=PropertiesChanged
array [
dict entry(
string "UnmanagedSpecs"
variant array [
]
)
]
....

This repeats indefinitely. Any clues?

Never mind, downgrading to NetworkManager-0.8.999-2.git20110509 fixed the issue.

To answer my own question, the issue was reproducible in GNOME as
well, and is now fixed by NetworkManager-0.8.9997-4.git20110620
update.
