I removed "Auto Eth" from the wired network notifications to fix hundred-papercuts bug 386900.

This is sadly not where such a change would be made. You'll likely want to delete this merge request and file another against lp:~network-manager/network-manager/ubuntu.head which contains just the Ubuntu changes (and also make it as a patch rather than direct changes).

Note that you should check the comment I left in the bug, I'm not sure changing just the tooltip texts will be sufficient, what really needs changing seems to me more like just the "default" name for a connection created automatically by NetworkManager.

Indeed we don't want to apply this in Ubuntu without it being applied upstream first, otherwise we'd have a permanent delta on user-visible strings. This would keep breaking all translations.

Also, please don't drop the interface name from the string, as it's not uncommon to have more than one. I think "wired connection (eth0)" is a good enough compromise.

Marked Rejected, as this is proposed against an automatic import branch. And change would need to be submitted upstream instead.
