[Pkg-kde-extras] Bug#576279: network-manager-kde: Tray icon non-functional, shows "Network Management disabled" message

[Jonathan E. Magen]

Package: network-manager-kde
Version: 1:0.9~svn1088283-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable


After a recent forced restart, knetworkmanager no longer functions
properly. When I mouse over the tray icon, it pops up a plasma
notification saying "Unmanaged" with the 'cable disconnected from the
outlet' icon. When I click on the tray icon, a one-option menu pops
up. It says only "Network Management disabled" in greyed-out
letters. I have Network Manager chosed in the KDE settings and it
worked fine before I had to do a hard restart on my laptop.
