[OE-core] [PATCH 0/4] Upgrade connman to 1.0

[Iorga, Cristian]

Hi Ross,

As far as I have seen from the code, between the previous version of connman and version 1.0, the way the default connection is set has changed.

Right now, the default connection is established through an external file.
Before 1.0, the default connection was established via the code (and a patch was added in the recipe against this, and it needs to be adapted).

See bug regarding this:
Bug #2491

Damn shame - totally bust access control is quite depressing.  I'll revert that chunk and throw a large comment around it - can't have something some suspicious without any documentation.

Hopefully without sounding like an ex-MeeGo fanboy, uxlaunch is actually pretty useful for this.  It sets up a proper PAM login, brings up X, and handles XDG autostart.  Might be worth looking at for single-user environments.
