Package: network-manager-kde
Version: 1:0.9~svn1141976-1
Severity: grave
Tags: upstream
Justification: renders package unusable
When trying to use VPN or manual settings with Knetwork Manager it crashes. KDE
bug 215080
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=215080 has been open since 2009-11-18 and
is no where
being resolved. Please do not include this buggy package in stable, but provide
a workaround
of using network-manager-gnome instead. I've set-up network-manager-gnome on my
KDE install
and it works fine. I reverted back after months in hopes that the bug had been
fixed, but
it has not.

Closing this bug. It does not occur with plasma widget and the tray
application has already been removed from sid/wheezy.
