Package: network-manager
Version: 0.8.4.0-2
Severity: normal
nmcli and nm-applet fail to connect to listed wifi network with the
following message:
--
No user settings service available
--
I am using wdm and xfce.
Installing package gdm3 solves the problem, but also installs many
dependencies:
--
at-spi{u} gdm3 gnome-power-manager{u} gnome-session-bin{u} gnome-settings-daemon{u}
hwdata{u} libart-2.0-2{u} libatspi1.0-0{u} libbonobo2-0{u} libbonobo2-common{u}
libbonoboui2-0{u} libbonoboui2-common{u} libgail-common{u} libgnome-desktop-2-17{u}
libgnome2-0{u} libgnome2-common{u} libgnomecanvas2-0{u} libgnomecanvas2-common{u}
libgnomekbd-common{u} libgnomekbd4{u} libpanel-applet2-0{u} libpolkit-gtk-1-0{u}
xserver-xephyr{u} zenity{u}

I didn't drill down to find which among these deps _should_ be added to network-manager deps,
but I guess it's gnome-settings-daemon.
