I just came across this issue and it really is very frustrating. A preference should not be available if the feature isn't even installed.
If you go to software center and search "Personal File sharing", it will you everything is installed which is even worse since then the end user is really confused. Win, Mac also do file sharing and its far less of a headache. -- Personal file sharing preferences dialog does not offer to install needed packages https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/536766 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
