Description Karan Pratap Singh 2011-06-20 18:32:08 UTC
Version:           git-latest (using Devel) 
OS:                Linux

I installed the Presence Applet, but did not install the presence applet's dataengine. The presence applet ran fine, but did not give me an error that I did not have the dataengine installed...

This should be there so that people remember to install the dataengine, otherwise they will think that the presence applet is broken!

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
just install the presence applet and do not install its dataengine and run the presence applet , and there you have it! No Error about the missing dataengine!

Actual Results:  
There was no error or warning telling me about the missing dataengine!

Expected Results:  
There should be an error or warning message informing me that I had forgotten to install the presence applet's dataengine and without which the presence applet does not work.

FIX: Presence applet should inform user when the required dataengine is not installed

Add: an error panel with a message telling users to install the appropriate dataengine if
they haven't done so.
this fix will be 100% effective in next KDE release as there is currently a bug (fixed by
aseigo).
