[Pkg-kde-extras] Bug#576279: network-manager-kde: Tray icon non-functional, shows "Network Management disabled" message

Ok, it looks like this is a known bug. When network-manager becomes
disabled, there is no way to enable it using knetworkmanager! I used
network-manager-gnome and got networking enabled.

See KDE bug #232531 => https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=232531

How can I help to move this along? Without a good way to enable
network management again, it makes network-management-kde useless
under those circumstances.
