I tested deb provided by hyperair (big thanks) and however it has wrong
depencies (cairo2 version doesn't fit with Hardy), but --force-all
cures/b0rks any problems :) Anyway, it would be strange if cairo would
affect this :)

So I tested in various situations and shortly - it works and I don't
even experience bug what Kjell Braden saw - everything updates just
normally.

I tested several situations:
1. Open network-admin, roaming mode is on, /etc/network/interfaces has only lo 
entry
2. Press unblock, auth stuff
3. Double click on Wired interface
4. Check out 'Enable roaming mode' checkbox and configure interface according 
to your needs
5. Click OK
6. Vola! /etc/network/interfaces has auto eth0 (under interface configuration, 
but who cares for now) and interface is up and running

After this, I run second test:
1. Open network admin, roaming mode is disabled, /etc/network/interfaces has 
address you configured before
2. Press unblock auth stuff
3. Double click on Wired Interface
4. Change address to new one
5. Click OK
6. Vola! /etc/network/interfaces has new ip with still auto eth0 enabled AND 
new address is up and running (not like bug expierenced by Kjell Braden, as far 
as I understood)

I will do additional line of tests, but this bug seems to be fixed by
this patch. Thanks to Kjell for fix and hyperair for deb!
