sysadmin-bugs, tmb changig back part of the summary to make it meaningfull in searches. Summary:
networkmanager-applet missing in LiveCds =>
networkmanager-applet missing in LiveCds (cannot configure network settings, nm-connection-editor missing) networkmanager-applet should be pulled by gnome-control-center, if it is needed by one of its panels. CC:

mageia 65 # (wally) drop req for nm-applet as nm currently breaks wireless networking 66 #Requires: networkmanager-applet is that still valid ? http://svnweb.mageia.org/packages/cauldron/gnome-control-center/current/SPECS/gnome-control-center.spec?r1=130682&r2=132894 CC:

jani.valimaa Not sure (as currently I don't have any gnome machine with WLAN), but maybe the OP could test this?! Per discussion between me + wally, we'll reenable networkmanager dependency and see if we get any complaints/bugreports/issues. I've seen bugs advocating NM and against... Target Milestone:
--- =>
Mageia 2

5015 This is bogus. g-c-c requires an applet it doesn't use just because of a network tool. nm-connection-editor should be splited in another sub packages instead. CC:

thierry.vignaud 1. In GNOME 3.6 or 3.8 the requirement will be removed 2. /usr/bin/nm-applet and /usr/bin/nm-connection-editor share the same translation files, .ui files, images, etc. I think to avoid any bugs (because almost everything is shared and hard to verify what can be split), you'd maybe save 300KB or so (the command + autostart file). It is not even an applet btw, just something for the notification tray. If you mean something else please say so. "bogus": blergh.
