Package: kdenetwork-filesharing Version: 4:3.4.0-0pre1 Severity: important kdenetwork-filesharing makes use of /usr/bin/fileshareset and /usr/bin/filesharelist, which are setuid perl scripts. These two scripts are included in kdelibs-bin. Without the package 'perl-suid' on cannot use these 2 scripts, hence one cannot use KDE's filesharing features.
kdelibs-bin is does only recommend perl-suid. Therefore, perl-suid will not be installed, when kdenetwork-filesharing is installed. The user gets some wierd error messages ("make sure if the fileshareset script ist really setuid" or something similiar) but does not know what to do. Solution: a) make kdenetwork-filesharing depend on the perl-suid (also you might then be able to remove the "recommend" from kdelibs-bin) b) make kdelibs-bin depend on perl-suid instead of only recommending it Don't know which one is better. Anyway, without perl-suid the package kdenetwork-filesharing is not usable, therefore there must be some kind of dependance on perl-suid.
