[pkg-lxqt-devel] Bug#842444: cmst: Error message when connman-vpn not installed

[Dai_trying(dave)]

Package: cmst
Version: 2016.10.03-1
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream

Dear Maintainer,

I installed a fresh debian minimal installation (no DE) and then proceded to install lxqt (and xorg) to use the lxqt as my desktop. When I started CMST UI it gives a "critical" error message saying "Unable to create an interface to connman-vpn on the system bus. CMST will not be able to communicate with the connman vpn daemon" As I don't use vpn I didn't consider this as being critical and proceded to set-up my wifi connection without issue. I then checked "Enable Autostart" in the "Program Control" section of the preferences tab to gain the system tray icon. Each subsequent restart gave me this same error dialog. I managed to disable this by selecting "Use Start Options" from the interface section of preferences and then checking "Disable VPN" and now it starts without issue. I am reporting this as it tells the user there is a "critical error" which a lesser experienced user might consider as meaning something is seriously wrong with their system. I installed the sid package to test if this happened with the newer version and the results were the same.
If I have not supplied any information that you would require please ask and I will supply it.
