Otherwise the types links would be dangling or resolved to slightly
irrelevant documentation in libnm or completely irrelevant documentation
in libnm-util.
In commit ca000cffbb, we changed to
accept a plugin library name without path. One reason for that
is to keep architecture dependent parts out of the .name file
and possibly support multilib.
However, the shared libraries of VPN plugins are not installed in
a global library search path, but for example into
"/usr/lib64/NetworkManager/libnm-vpn-plugin-openvpn.so".
In that case, specifying "plugin=libnm-vpn-plugin-openvpn.so"
would not be enough to find plugin.
Instead, when configuring a plugin name without path, assume
it is in NMPLUGINDIR directory. Modify nm_vpn_editor_plugin_load_from_file()
to allow path-less plugin-names. Previously such names would be rejected
as not being absolute. This API allows to do file verification
before loading the plugin, but it now supports prepending NMPLUGINDIR
to the plugin name. Basically, this function mangles the plugin_name
argument and checks that such a file exists.
The recently added nm_vpn_editor_plugin_load() continues to behave
as before: it does no checks whatsoever and passes the name directly
to dlopen(). That way, it uses system search paths like LD_LIBRARY_PATH
and performs no checks on the file.

For internal compilation we want to be able to use deprecated
API without warnings.
Define the version min/max macros to effectively disable deprecation
warnings.
However, don't do it via CFLAGS option in the makefiles, instead hack it
to "nm-default.h". After all, *every* source file that is for internal
compilation needs to include this header as first.
Up to now, the "include" directory contained (only) header files that were
used project-wide by libs, core, clients, et al.
Since the directory now also contains a non-header file, the "include"
name is misleading. Instead of adding yet another directory that is
project-wide, with non-header-only content, rename the "include"
directory to "shared".
For libnm library, "nm-dbus-interface.h" contains defines like the D-Bus
paths of NetworkManager. It is desirable to have this header usable without
having a dependency on "glib.h", for example for a QT application. For that,
commit c0852964a8 removed that dependancy.
For libnm-glib library, the analog to "nm-dbus-interface.h" is
"NetworkManager.h", and the same applies there. Commit
159e827a72 removed that include.
However, that broke build on PackageKit [1] which expected to get the
version macros by including "NetworkManager.h". So at least for libnm-glib,
we need to preserve old behavior so that a user including
"NetworkManager.h" gets the version macros, but not "glib.h".
Extract the version macros to a new header file "nm-version-macros.h".
This header doesn't include "glib.h" and can be included from
"NetworkManager.h". This gives as previous behavior and a glib-free
include.
For libnm we still don't include "nm-version-macros.h" to "nm-dbus-interface.h".
Very few users will actually need the version macros, but not using
libnm.
Users that use libnm, should just include (libnm's) "NetworkManager.h" to
get all headers.
As a special case, a user who doesn't want to use glib/libnm, but still
needs both "nm-dbus-interface.h" and "nm-version-macros.h", can include
them both separately.

NMVpnPluginInfo is little more then a wrapper around
the GKeyFile that describes the VPN plugin settings,
i.e. the name files under "/etc/NetworkManager/VPN/".
Add this class to make the VPN API more explicit. Clients
now can use NMVpnPluginInfo instead of concerning themselves
with loading the keyfile and the meaning of its properties.
Also add support for a new VPN plugins directory
"/usr/lib/NetworkManager/VPN", which should replace
"/etc/NetworkManager/VPN" in the future. But we have to
consider both locations for backward compatibility.
The content of the VPN directory is not user configuration,
hence it should not be under "/etc". See related bug 738853.
Libraries need to include <gi18n-lib.h>, not <gi18n.h>, so that _()
will get defined to "dgettext (GETTEXT_DOMAIN, string)" rather than
"gettext (string)" (which will use the program's default domain, which
works fine for programs in the NetworkManager tree, but not for
external users). Likewise, we need to call bindtextdomain() so that
gettext can find the translations if the library is installed in a
different prefix from the program using it (and
bind_textdomain_codeset(), so it will know the translations are in
UTF-8 even if the locale isn't).
(The fact that no one noticed this was broken before is because the
libraries didn't really start returning useful translated strings much
until 0.9.10, and none of the out-of-tree clients have been updated to
actually show those strings to users yet.)
Port libnm-core/libnm to GDBus.
The NetworkManager daemon continues to use dbus-glib; the
previously-added connection hash/variant conversion methods are now
moved to NetworkManagerUtils (along with a few other utilities that
are now only needed by the daemon code).
Add NetworkManager.h, which includes all of the other NM header, and
require all external users of libnm to use that rather than the
individual headers.
(An exception is made for nm-dbus-interface.h,
nm-vpn-dbus-interface.h, and nm-version.h, which can be included
separately.)
This fixes up the code from the previous "clean" import, and adds
build infrastructure.
[There are two slightly orthogonal sets of changes in this patch.
First, the files added in the previous commit were modified as followed:
# Replace internal references to "libnm-util" and "libnm-glib" with "libnm"
perl -pi -e 's/libnm-(util|glib)/libnm/;' libnm-core/*.[ch] libnm-core/tests/*.[ch] libnm/*.[ch] libnm/tests/*.[ch]
# Fix includes of the enum-types files
perl -pi -e 's/nm-utils-enum-types/nm-core-enum-types/;' libnm-core/*.[ch] libnm-core/tests/*.[ch] libnm/*.[ch] libnm/tests/*.[ch]
perl -pi -e 's/nm-glib-enum-types/nm-enum-types/;' libnm/*.[ch] libnm/tests/*.[ch]
# Fix some python example code
perl -pi -e 's/import NMClient/import NM/;' -e 's/NMClient.Client\(\)/NM.Client()/;' libnm/nm-client.c
Then, the build infrastructure was added (without further modifying
any existing files in libnm-core or libnm.)
Note: to regenerate libnm.ver after rebase:
(head -2 libnm-util/libnm-util.ver; (grep -h '\s'nm_ libnm-util/libnm-util.ver libnm-glib/libnm-glib.ver | env LANG=C sort); tail -3 libnm-util/libnm-util.ver) > libnm/libnm.ver
]
