Description Jagannathan Tiruvallur Eachambadi 2018-06-15 17:49:47 UTC
This prevents people from using other methods to connect to the internet since networkmanager seems to be enabled by the vendor itself causing issues when installed and present in the system. I read the author's blog post about the feature that disconnects from the network upon certain conditions but I hoped it would be optional. Can this be looked at. Right now I have had to remove plasma-vault since it interfered with my ability to use the internet due to networkmanager.

Already fixed, see https://phabricator.kde.org/D13255
Comment 2 Christoph Feck 2018-06-15 21:34:13 UTC
To clarify, this patch enables distributions to compile Plasma Vault without NetworkManager dependencies. Whether they actually do this, you would have to discuss with the distribution maintainers.

Just looked at the patch and saw that it had to be disabled in kded as well. I am not sure if the maintainer would disable it but I am happy to compile it myself since I am the one with weird use case :) Thanks!

Okay, my last comment was stupid. I didn't see this was a recent change that hasn't made a release yet.
