Package: lxde
Severity: wishlist
Hi LXDE people,
looking at #988696 and #994875, I would like to ask, if you would be fine
with switching the main desktop network-management tool away from connman to
network-manager.
The main reasons are connman-gtk's lack of a system-tray icon (so users are not
easily aware of the existence of the tool) and some basically missing
features [1].
It seems that network-manager is considered as the quasi-standard tool for
network management these days, so question is, if you have some strong ambitions
on using connman.
LXDE being a light-weighted desktop environment, I guess a main point will be
the disk-space and memory footprint, and currently this would be indeed an
issue, since the installation of network-manager on top of a current LXDE
installation uses 39 MB of additional disk space.
(However, it was already proposed by a network-manager maintainer, that the
used disk space could be reduced by 8,5 MB via the creation of a
network-manager-l10n package or even more by the splitt-off of some plugin
modules into separate packages [2].)
Technically such switch from connman to network-manager could be done just by
a swapping in a Recommends: line for the lxde package:
- connman-gtk | network-manager-gnome | wicd
+ network-manager-gnome | connman-gtk | wicd
What do you think?
