Package: debian-cd Severity: normal gnome-keyring is a recommend of network-manager-gnome. While network-manager-gnome is included on the xfce CD, gnome-keyring is not. It should be. I noticed this when installing stable, but testing appears to also have the problem. An install from the xfce CD w/o network will result in an installed system that lacks gnome-keyring. When attempting to connect to a wifi network that needs a password, network-manager will immediately fail, and display a very non-useful "the network connection has been disconnected" alert. Many users at this point will be stuck and not able to figure out why their system is broken. Adding gnome-keyring as a depend to tasks that include network-manager-gnome would be one way to solve this, if fixing the debian-cd recommends resolution code is intractable. It would probably be a good idea to compare installs from CD with and w/o network, and see what recommended packages get left off. There are likely other land-mines like this one lurking. -- System Information: Debian Release: 8.0 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) -- see shy jo
