[Pkg-kde-extras] Bug#737504: plasma-widget-networkmanagement: WLAN connection not re-established after resume when using systemd

[Ralf Jung]

Package: plasma-widget-networkmanagement
Version: 0.9.0.9-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

when I use systemd as my init system, the Network Manager Applet fails to
re-establish the WLAN connection when coming back from suspend to RAM.

Steps to reproduce:
* Connect to some wireless network
* Suspend to RAM
* Resume

Expected Behaviour:
It should ask for the password in order to re-connect to the wireless.

Actual Behaviour:
It just pretends the connection was still available. This may work out
if the machine was suspended for a very short time only and not moved,
but if I moved to another room where another AP serves the same SSID,
or if the machine was suspended for more than just a few minutes,
I have to manually disconnetc and reconnect to the wireless network.

I do not know which part of the stack is responsible for this re-connection
on resume, hence I reported this in the user-facing component.

Kind regards
Ralf
