The following patches were applied:
- Athom-Dont-drop-PSK.patch: when 4 way handshake fails NetworkManager would drop the PSK. This is an issue on headless systems where the user cannot be prompted for new password. The issue is still open: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/-/issues/1316 and https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/-/issues/1371
- Athom_Dhcp4.patch: renew IP would fail sometimes, fixed in n-dhcp4 but not yet in our NetworkManager version. Backport. nettools/n-dhcp4#33
- Athom-BuildFix.patch: ignore dependencies
cd network-manager/network-manager-1.30.6
Update version by adding entry to debian/changelog file.
Note: for our project we needed to disable Bluetooth: make sure libbluetooth-dev is not installed and --enable-bluez5-dun \ was removed from debian/rules.
