Bug 151229 – Ebuild for net-misc/knemo-0.4.5 incorrectly states that KNemo should be started by KDE Service Manager

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Wiktor Wandachowicz 2006-10-13 14:38:12 UTC]

After merging this package the following information is displayed:
===
 * KNemo is not an executable but an KDED service. Therefore it has to
 * be started using Control Center/KDE Components/Service Manager.
===

However, one can read in the /usr/share/doc/knemo-0.4.5/README.gz as follows:

===
IMPORTANT: KNemo has to be started using KDE Control Center/Internet & Network/
Network Monitor. Please do no longer use the KDE Service Manager to start and
stop KNemo. This change was necessary to keep KNemo from starting automatically
for every user in a multiuser environment.
===

So in fact, a user that wants to start KNemo looks in the Control Center/ KDE Components/Service Manager and then he/she cannot do anything with "Network monitor" service. However, looking in the Control Center/Internet & Network/
Network Monitor allows the user to turn on the option to use network monitor and configure its aspects (like network interfaces and so on).

Please, correct the ebuild to be consistent with the package's README and not to give false instructions anymore.

Thanks!
