[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#461436: network-manager: Missing dependency on dbus-x11

Hello,

Thanks for your quick reply.

WPA/WEP key memorization, for example, which is an essential feature.

Yes, but I use network-manager-gnome without Gnome itself (I use 
Windowmaker)

That's true, but I think that for people who don't use Gnome or Kde (and 
probably have a lightweight configuration, without dbus-x11), but who 
want to use network-manager-gnome, having dbus-x11 recommended by 
network-manager-gnome would be a stronger incentive to install it (the 
average user doesn't care about the recommendations of dbus, because he 
doesn't even know what it is).

Regards,
Nicolas
