Public bug reported: Binary package hint: nautilus
What happens -> I open the Personal file sharing preferences dialog via system-preferences or via nautilus, and Im told that the network sharing feature can not be enabled because the required packages are not on your pc. I, as a tech user, went to synaptic, found the package, looked for its recommends and got the functionality. A normal user wont be able to do so, and so a button to install those packages is needed for usabilty's sake.
