Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: network-manager
network-manager package Recommends network-manager-gnome | network-
manager-kde
Since in Jaunty, knetworkmanager (network-manager-kde) is not installed by
kubuntu-desktop, this causes that GNOME version is pulled in instead - these
are the packages installed on clean Kubuntu Alpha 5 install:
ii bluez-gnome 1.8-0ubuntu2
Bluetooth utilities for GNOME
ii gnome-keyring 2.25.92-0ubuntu1
GNOME keyring services (daemon and tools)
ii libgnome-keyring0 2.25.92-0ubuntu1
GNOME keyring services library
ii libpam-gnome-keyring 2.25.92-0ubuntu1
PAMmodule to unlock the GNOME keyring upon
ii libpolkit-gnome0 0.9-1ubuntu3
PolicyKit-gnome library
ii libsoup-gnome2.4-1 2.25.91-0ubuntu1
an HTTP library implementation in C -- Share
ii network-manager-gnome 0.7.1~rc3-0ubuntu1
network management framework (GNOME frontend
Since kubuntu-desktop in Jaunty now uses "plasma-widget-network-
manager", network-manager should not pull in any additional packages.
I see two ways to address this problem:
1. Change network-manager's Recommends and add "| plasma-widget-network-manager"
2. Change knetworkmanager and plasma-widget-network-manager packages to both
Provides network-manager-kde
(currently knetworkmanager ships in network-manager-kde binary package)
It would make sense to align with Debian in this matter.
