The proposed changes to the ebuild add the wpa_gui icon, thus enabling the system tray icon for wpa_gui. I checked it with KDE4, can someone check if it works with KDE3? Paludis reports a QA issue, about creating the /sbin and /bin directories prior to symlinking. It also makes the baselayout compatibility commands dependant on baselayout-1. I wonder whether networkmanager works OK with it. Please check the attached diff file for details.
