Hi,

I've tried recompiling the NetworkManager-kde-package from
http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/SL-OSS-factory/inst-source/suse/src/
myself. Okay, in the Fedora-world names like "dbus-devel" instead of
"dbus-3-devel" are used - no problem with that.

But to me it seems that kdepim3-networkstatus (or kdepim-networkstatus
in Fedora) is really needed - it seems there are several references to
files from that package. However those headerfiles don't exist in
kdepim-devel in Fedora which is 3.5.2-0.4.fc5. I've found that there is
"networkstatus" in the kdepim-sourcepackage actually - but I didn't yet
figure out why the current kdepim / kdepim doesn't ship with
libnetworkstatus or any headerfiles for this functionlity.

 Stefan
