Can't connect with connman 1.27-1

I reinstalled arch linux a few days back following wiki, it went well except for one thing. After the installation is finished, X, lightdm, enlightenment and all that installed via wifi-menu connection, I rebooted and installed connman 1.27-1 following connman wiki steps, started and enabled it, enabled wifi using connmanctl and followed the steps at "Connecting to a protected access point" part. Everything went as wiki says it would. Then to test the connection, I pinged a site, it hanged for a while and reported back a message saying "Unknown host.." or something. I can reproduce it if it is important. Then cpu load went way up, so I restarted connman service via systemctl, cpu load went down for a little while, then it went way up again, and no connection again. I used the same steps to install arch as I did before with connman 1.26-1, I think. That time, connection was flawless. I don't think I did something different. Can anyone guide me through this? I mean I can connect via starting the netctl I used during arch install just fine, but I don't know if this is a bug, or if I'm doing something wrong. I'm not that skilled of a user.

my ethernet is broken so I can't test if it is working.

i installed connman from git and there seems to be no problem now.

Thanks a lot! I tried connman-git a few days ago, but no joy. However, that git-commit from yesterday fixed it for me as well

Re: Can't connect with connman 1.27-1

After installing new linux kernel today, connman was source of ip6 requests with tcpdump calling it indefinite request?  Was tying up network with requests coming from connman.  Will try connman-git to see if this clears it up.
