[Pkg-kde-extras] Bug#378284: kwlan: doesn't show up as unprivileged user

[Mau]

Package: kwlan
Version: 0.4.8-1
Severity: important


after launching $ kwlan as an ordinary user no icons show up in the tray;
a quick look with ps aux | grep kwlan shows an active process but even
waiting for a long time nothing happens.

The same happens:
- with or without wpasupplicant running;
- with or without a stanza for the wireless interface in
  /etc/network/interfaces.

if I run kwlan as root everything works as expected.

Thanks

Mau
