Package: wader-core
Version: 0.5.10-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

I experimented with wader-core as a replacement for modem-manager. I
already had network-manager installed. I installed wader-core, which
removed modem-manager. Due to my experiments, the modem-manager d-bus
service was run manually and thus was stopped manually.

The wader-core failed to detect my modem[*] and I decided to revert
to modem-manager. I purged the package. However as the service is run
from D-Bus, it was still running. Hence after I re-installed
modem-manager, it failed to start (another program was using that
interface).


I consider this a bug. Though maybe this is an inherent bug of running
a service from D-Bus and in this case it's a nofix / whishlist /
whatever.


[*] That's a separate issue. Sadly don't have the time to debug it
right now. So some basic informtion:
05c6:9000 Qualcomm, Inc. SIMCom SIM5218 modem, an Option modem. Well
detected by modem-manager. IIRC I also had no issues using it with
wvdial using /dev/ttyUSB2 .
