Subject: [DNG] Pushed debugged code for backend memory leakages
Hi,

Although, like all software projects, the final debugging phase never
ends, I pushed the latest changes to address memory leakages in
backend and some programmatic inexactitudes.

I would like to also draw attention to an outstanding BUG I
discovered. This is exhibited when netman GUI tries to connect to an
inexistent wifi transceiver or to an Ethernet device to which no
network cables are connected. I am thinking about a CLI command to
parse for such a situation so that users of netman GUI would be able
to disconnect 'zombie' connections. This is 'ps aux' which lists all
running processes. Searching for running instances of dhclient and
looking in such records for the presence of wlanx, ethx or whatever
udev calls them, looks like another way to distinguish genuine working
connections from 'zombie' connections.

If you have better suggestions as to a more efficient CLI, please,
make your suggestions.
