Well, there was also a bug in drakx-net about that, and I've finally
found time to fix it.
This has been introduced by the NM support added by Mandriva (revision
271832), which we carelessly imported initially :-/

Basically, if a NM_CONTROLLED setting was present in an ifcfg file, it
would always be rewritten as &quot;yes&quot;...

This bugfix was worth a big release bump, welcome drakx-net 1.0!
